on one page there was an ad that ran, that led to http://drivecleaner.com/?ad=adult&link=intl

it popped-up a system dialogue box telling me I needed to scan my system, without me clicking on it at all...

You might have some kind of adware on your computer. Better scan and make sure.

Running now.

I know for a fact it was the ad, however, because when I clicked on the ad, it led to the very same site.

Check the sticky "Banner ads problems".

Thank you, I have no clue as to how I missed that.
