Congratulations, you've been infected with a trojen called FakeAlert. This is not Google placing adds for a malware site. This is an injected script that adds HTML to the code that you've downloaded. I suggest doing a little research before placing blame. this Trojen was written in Russia and does not infect any systems with Russian set as the prefered language. Should you be interested in learning more about this trojen and what it does, please visit McAfee's site or Sophos' website and search for FakeAlert.
