I took a screen capture of what it looks like on my end.[ATTACH]24668[/ATTACH]
I could only figure out how to save the screen pic in a pfd formate so you will have to forgive my ignorance. The adds are clickable and have a green arrow highlighting it. It also repeats the key word. I don't know what to make of it. It has been doing this for several months.

Never had that on this site. You might have downloaded some malware...

Thanks

Yeah, I suspect malware also. Try running Malwarebytes, it gets most things. https://www.malwarebytes.org
download the free version or you can buy:eek: it also
I have seen this behavior but it is usually intentional on commercial sites.

I had that before and ran Malwarebytes, and got rid of it.

I had this happen to me quite a while ago but I can't for the life of me remember what I did to get rid of it. I think that if you log out and then reset your password for this site that might cure it. Try to log out and then log in again, if this does not workthen the version of windows that is on the computer. In my case the computer got a bunch of viruses and the computer shop cleared the viruses and reinstalled an operating system. The problem was that they installed a business version of Windows that my HP Pavilion did not like at all. The blue adverts would even appear in MY posts. The web cam would not work even on skype and he mute light for the speakers was on all the time. Because the computer had just been reformatted I used the disc that I got from HP and reformatted the HD again and upgraded IE to V8 and all has been well since. If you have added anything lately remove it and try again. I hope you don't have to reformat the HD.

I found the discussion. Go to the members section and look for all threads under my name (WA2CRK) and find the one "have we been hacked" and read through
