I searched on the domain it hit (copies of the malware and screenshots are at home, and I don't remember specifics at the moment) and found it associated with a couple mostly-harmless pieces of crap. I use XKCD as my browser/connectivity test, and when I clicked on the gray background on either side of the content, it was a link that opened a new window. Interested: how did you find the malware?
