If visitor clicks on ad shown on YouTube video on my site does it count as a click

1 replies
Wasn't sure how much I could fit in the title.

When reviewing my visitor logs there was a "click on link on your blog". I didn't recognize the link so I copied and pasted it to a sandboxed browser window and it came up as one of those sites that tries to hack your computer by getting you to download their infected Flash Update.

I don't have any external links on my website. I searched the source code on all of my pages and the link didn't show up.

I did more research and it turns out the link is normally installed in an infected browser extension. The only thing I can think of is some viewed my site with an infected browser extension or maybe somebody clicked on an ad banner that popped up on a Youtube video that is on my site.

I'm obviously worried about Google slapping my site with a "Malicious Code Warning".

Anyone have any experience with this?

Thanks,

    you can't control if some spammy bot clicked on your web property (blog, youtube video etc..)

    I wouldn't worry about that

    best of luck,
