dougkinzinger Posted October 9, 2003 Share Posted October 9, 2003 I think he's saying he sees those "words" in all his browser windows, regardless of what site he's on. It's probably adware of sorts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MPH Posted October 9, 2003 Share Posted October 9, 2003 I also get these "words" which appears to be advertising hyperlinks, but just on Neowin site. I guess it depends which sites do you visit. Ad aware and Norton Antivirus didn't find anything on my computer. See atachment. Can anyone explain what is going on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The text links are ads put in by Neowin. Try the "Search" feature, and you'll see this has been posted before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
