This is what Chrome told me:

So it's one of their advertisers. Main problem with 3rd party ad networks =/ Hope they sort it out.

For what it's worth, torrentfreak is pretty clean.

Either adblock or ghostery is blocking that ad network, then.

Well, you can roll the dice. Depending on what OS you're on, that dice may be weighted differently...
