Seems it's not just our problem but a fairly general one.

It's hard for us to track down which ad causes it due to how specific ad delivery is these days. Every individual sees ads tailored to them. Additionally the ads masquerade as legitimate ads, and load java exploits randomly. Browsers like Chrome and Firefox protect you when this code is detected and don't execute it.

We use two ad networks, AdSense and OpenX, they're as large and legitimate as they come and these issues seem to be hitting quite a lot of large sites right now.

I've looked into analyzing the ad code on our end for exploits before it's served but haven't found anything.

Another strange bug has arisen recently. When I switched to my machine using a 4:3 monitor but did not log in, the main wiki site went into a sort of "safe mode" where frames were not used and only basic HTML text was used, making the site very difficult to navigate. This went away when I logged in, but I'd like to know if anyone else has experienced this bug.

That's not a bug, it's the site's default skin.

That sounds like the css file wasn't being served - my guess would be that file was unavailable at that moment for whatever reason and instead you were just getting plain html text.
