I'm sure many of you have noticed by now, certain words in many posts are underlined, as links to other websites. Is that with all the Proboards, or just this one?

You have spyware. That doesn't happen to me, but that's a common effect of spyware.

I had the same problem a few months ago. On the homepage this is what was linked to other websites:
RADIO INDUSTRY FORUMS RADIO & RECORDS CHART FORUMS MUSIC FORUMS OFF-TOPIC FORUMS

So even if you only see those underlined things very rarely, you still have spyware? I got that earlier today on another site, but it was like the first time in a couple of months.

My Google Toolbar 2.0 highlights words that I search for in orange... maybe it's something similar with your underlines?
