This is possibly overly alarmist by Google - this happens on another forum I frequent, and it's usually caused by just embedding an image hosted on a site that's been compromised.

Unlikely for there to be any implications for your device, but you may not know if you're posting a link to a site which could cause harm to other users.

Lots of pop-ups is not necessarily something to go by; malicious code does not need a pop-up to infect a computer. It's probably safe to say that it's more likely on sites you might expect it on (porn, pirated software sites etc).

Ironic no? As its these very Windows users who are causing the problem to start with.
I would be surprised if the majority of surfers are not still using Windows.
