what's with these new links on p8ntballer?

[Steve Hancock]

Why are some off these words being linked to external sites? I noticed a few people had random links in their posts with underlined in green.

I've seen a few around.

Insurance

EDIT: More than one example per post and it doesn't work

And not only that but when you open the page it jumps to the word or ad. Are we going to start suffering from pop-ups soon?

I wonder what other words work...

You have spyware. Download ad-aware run it then download spywareblaster and install it.

Yeah i figured as much when the same thing was occuring everywhere i looked.

It's weird because i first saw it in someone elses post, and then it appeared in my post, maybe i clicked on the link to see what it was and infected my self. Strange how it can edit your posts, and that its still there in DW quote. Do you see it as well?

Can't remember what its called though.

If you want to check for spyware or get rid of something then run this :
