Today, something weird started happening.
Everytime that I left click anywhere on my firefox window, a new tab opens with a "Dummy test" advertisement. This means that when I try to close the tab with another left click, a new tab opens... and this is pretty much an endless process :P
It looks like I can out-speed the tabs. If I close them all fast enough, they stop spawning :O... but this is extremely annoying. They also keep opening until I do something. About 30 tabs opened when I didn't click on anything for like 20sec.
This only affects my left click every few minutes. Once I close all the random tabs, it leaves me in peace for some moments... But it is not website-dependant, because it happened to me on google as well. Clicking on a google link opens that tab instead of counting my click towards the link. Meaning that everything becomes unclickable until I've dealt with those tabs.
I won't give you a link to the virus/whatever page, because I don't want to get people infected by it :P So I took a screenshot... here it is:

Does anyone know what could be the source of this? My antivirus didn't get anything after a full scan (Microsoft security essencials - pro anti-virus I know). I also can't find anything about this on google.
Thank you in advance.
