I don't think this is too uncommon especially with lower-end advertising companies. I play an online game that has ads and for years I have caught their ads trying to install malware onto my PC.

I've reported it but they've never done anything about it. I've even shown them that they can make a lot more with more honest ads considering they have over 40,000 active players each who log on several times a day, but they never listen (or even respond). I've even sent them screenshots of the infected programs (and other needed software) and they still don't listen. On their official forum there is a running thread of what malware gets put on the PCs (or at least attempted to) and from where.
