xHamster is a free pornographic video sharing site headquartered in Houston, Texas, USA. As of November 2015 it has an Alexa ranking of 72 which makes it within the World's top 100 sites.[1]

Malvertising

Researcher Conrad Longmore claims that advertisements displayed by the sites were found to contain malware programs, which install harmful files on users' machines without their permission. Mr Longmore told the BBC that two popular sites – XHamster and Pornhub – pose the greatest threat.[2][3]
