> The creators of Scorecounter also made an online HTML editor

Or paid the entity running the malware HTML editor. It's probably injecting links to a variety of sites who paid them for placement.

[Disclosure work at Google] Unless i'm misreading this, the publisher of the html editor can easily replace links on some pretty large websites. Then it can also hack Google to remain a top html editor. This is a very clever virus!
