    Went there for you:

    "CheckM8 offers the online advertising industry the most advanced new approaches and cutting edge technologies for ad serving and rich media. CheckM8’s products help increase efficiency and expand the growth of web publishers and interactive agencies worldwide."

    This means its an online advertiser, so some site you visited uses them and they placed a cookie. Like all cookies, it was harmless.
