I've noticed, (been annoyed by), small ads popping up when I move the cursor over certain highlighted & underlined words, (I'm now making a point not to do this), I was just wondering if this was meant to happen?

Edit; just spotted that it's doing it in this post :slap:

Edit2; and now it's not :?

Is it a virus or mall ware on your PC as I don't get it :idea:

Try other forums.

I have looked at other forums and sites and I'm not getting it there, however I did wonder whether it was my PC so I'll probably roll it back and run a series of scans to see if it gets rid of it.

Definitely nothing to do with this forum or software installed - most probably a malware 'helper' that you have installed somehow?

Does it occur with all browsers?

Yup! :oops: looks like something snuck onto my PC, I've rolled back a month and everything's ok now, the funny thing was that it only seemed to be happening on this forum, which is why I posted the question, thanks for the responses :good:
