Hi, I was just using Firefox's built-in inspect element tool and at the bottom of every page it shows this:
<iframe style="width: 330px; height: 0px; border: 0px none; position: fixed; bottom: 0px; right: 0px; padding: 0px; line-height: 1em; z-index: 2147483647; margin-right: 10px;" name="prestosavings-ifrm-01" id="prestosavings-ifrm-01" src="https://savecdn.com/addon/coupontool2/iframe.php"></iframe>
That scared me at first because I thought maybe my site was hacked or something but I checked other sites and found the same thing. If I use another browser, or view source, it is not there. So I guess it has to do with the inspector? Just wondering if anyone else had this happen to them.

Maybe it's an add-on? It doesn't show up for me in either firebug or the built-in thing.
"prestosavings", "coupontool"..guessing there's something smelly hiding somewhere :P

The only addon I have is adblock, so i dont know.
EDIT:
Well of all things... personas interactive was doing it. It was the only thing besides adblock and I didn't even know I had it.

Wait, so the ones who made the add-on advertises in people code when people inspect it? ???
It reminds me of those forum mods that also adds stuff like Powered by EzPortal at the end of every page when installed, but sneakier.

No, probably you would see the ads normally, but I have adblock installed so you only see it in an element inspector. ;)

Oh I see. I thought it was not on the site but the element inspector deliberately added extra ad code.
