What's up with certain words within our posts turning into links to some other cyberspace place? I've run across words like, exercise or young or purchase that show up in underlined red and flash some sort of propaganda when my mouse hovers over them. Has ba.com been taken over by... by... by hoverbots?

Not happening here. I think you got a virus Keith. You gotta stop visiting those dodgy websites.

I had that once. I seem to remember an anti-malware program curing it.

Some sites have that within the site code, as ads placements... but I've never had those at ba.com
Looks like something's inside your computer.
PS Did you get my last pm over a week ago?

You guys were right, it was an add-on that got into Firefox somehow. I got rid of it and all is back to normal now.

Try this site for removal instructions: "Text Enhance" removal
