As much as I'd hate to see a circus of lawsuits around this issue, it's clear there is an ethical obligation of sites to warranty their advertisements to do no harm. A user willingly goes to www.reputablesite.com, but they have no informed consent over all the advertisements and other links that site displays, they just load along with the requested page. If the requested page is loading third party content and getting paid to do so, then clearly they should make every effort to screen for malware or abuse.
