I've received one redirect for PCKeeper too. It happened yesterday and might have been associated with an ad. I do know I had clicked on nothing when it happened. It happened for me on the Hardware forum page. Since I didn't select it I immediately closed the browser and restarted it.

Just opened up the forums on MMORPG.com and got a page asking me to download api_Downloader.exe.
Not sure if it's related or not. Currently scanning my system.
There isn't a "right" or "wrong" way to play, if you want to use a screwdriver to put nails into wood, have at it, simply don't complain when the guy next to you with the hammer is doing it much better and easier. - Allein "Graphics are often supplied by Engines that (some) MMORPG's are built in" - Spuffyre

Same here with the api_Downloader.exe. I didn't click anything, btw. It just downloaded it. Running Norton and certainly not opening it.
By the way, I found this thread by searching Google, not looking on the forums even though I got it from this site. Weirdness.
