If you mean this is happening in posts being put up on the forums by someone then can you post a link to an example pansi? It'd be advertising spam by some loser and the mods would probably get rid of it if you can point them to some of it.

Maybe it's a virus. I'm not seeing anything of the sort, unless you mean the banner ads.

Not the banners at top and bottom.

If no one else can see live links throughout the messages, please ignore my questions. I know not to go into them because it's spam.

your computer may have malware. Someone i know had one called "ponify" on his computer and it changed all text to have something to do with horses. Apparently his teenager put it on there.

Not malware exactly but same principle.

I was getting it on every site I visited.

Ok. Roll your pointer over the highlighted word. You will see a name. Not the business name of the spam but the name of the company responsible.

Google the name and there is a link to disable it. No more poo spam.

Sorry I have forgotten the name.
