Googlebot is Chrome

Haha those calls are AJAX calls for the social sharing widgets in IPullRank. It's Twitter, Digg, ShareThis, etc.

Thank you for looking out for the fine folks at HN though!

I was actually talking about requests to the website roots of various porn and p2p domains.

EDIT: Please contact me at the address in my profile if you'd like me to send you a list of URLs that my browser accessed when I loaded that cached page.

A quick run through the site with Firebug's XHR and Dependency Logger didn't show any Porn or P2P links or strange script calls.

I'll see if the site owner wants to reach out to you view email; thanks so much for speaking up.

Yeah, when I loaded the original article, I got a lot more loaded than you would expect (hundreds of domains, most of which don't appear to be relevant), leading me to believe that something shady is going on.

I can't edit that link anymore. Would suck if the Wordpress install was hacked. I'll try to contact the author. Thank you for the heads up.
