If you're either using Disqus to provide commenting on a website you run, or leaving comments on other sites, with commenting provided by Disqus, you might want to check this out.
I found that links in Disqus comments on one of my sites were being hijacked and redirected to redirect.viglink.com. Other Disqus users have reported links being hijacked and redirected to avantlink.ca [both ad networks].
Needless to say, this has been introduced by Disqus at some time in the fairly recent past [links in Disqus comments on my sites worked fine, previously] without telling their users they were doing this. Unbelievably underhand behaviour!
