This is not a real virus scan that site is doing. No online application can start automatically like that in so short a time, Plus that "dialog box" with the viruses it says it has detected is not a real dialog box. It is also pretty simple for him to obtain an IP address once you navigate to that site. Yes, it is never good to let any site you do not know and trust install anything on your computer.
