When the ad control is to present an ad, the ad control requests an ad from an ad provider. Upon receipt of the ad, the ad control generates one or more hashes from the ad, and may extract one or more landing pages from the ad. The ad control then submits the one or more hashes, and the URLs of the one or more landing pages, to a reputation service for verification.
