Freaky best man website

Let me say first, I know better about clicking on unknown websites and I'm feeling foolish. Got a link to the website in the subject line. hxxp://www.freakybestmanspeech.com/ Curiosity got the better of me. Firefox said the url was safe. But when I got to the site, a bunch of popups came up and some were blocked. Also, my McAfee scan was running at the time. I noticed the website paused the scan. I restarted the scan. I never clicked on the video. Then I noticed my virus scan had paused again. It never does that! So I was like, oh no! I cannot find anything about this url in forums or on McAfee. I ran Kapersky scan - clean. McAfee - clean. Malware bytes - clean. I will run Spybot & Superanti spyware. I am not having any 'funny' things happen on the my machine except that Mcafee scan pause I mentioned. Can you please check my Hijack log? thank you.
