Chrome lists two images as "malware":

    http://www.wired.com/playbook/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/soccer_w.jpg

    http://www.wired.com/playbook/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/bike-press-w.jpg
Both return actual images, so perhaps at some point in the past when wired.com was scanned these URLs redirected to somewhere malicious?
