    advertising in the posts now?

    Has my computer been hijacked or are other people also seeing obtrusive advertisements in the way of hyper linked words in peoples posts now ?

    +++ edit, it was my computer. Some crappy coupon extension installed itself without my permission.

    If you use chrome or any other Google application it embeds itself into your browser and does this as well.
    And Star Trek was just a tv show...yeah right!

        We do run some text link ads on the site, from what we tested it wasn't too much so I hope it's wasn't our stuff that was causing the problem. (we gotta pay the bills)
