Mr. Cranky: the FUCK?

So, I'm trying to go to Mr. Cranky to read some movie reviews, and every time I try to go to a page, my Web browser tries to download some randomly-named .exe file from adserver.gorillanation.com.

This is alarming enough. Then I try to run that thing--safely, inside WINE, so I can kick its head in if it tries anything funny. And I get wine: cannot determine executable type for 'Y:\jy4jbbxp.exe'.

Strings is no help. Running file on it tells me it's data. XV doesn't recognize it as any graphical format. What the fuck <i>is</i> this thing?

Mr Cranky apparently saw a movie so shitty that it made him want to destroy everyone's hard drive.

I'd point you to www.bfatt-lazy.com except that he doesn't really update that often these days.
