I usually click on at least once a day to check out the story of the day. Today I noticed that some of the words were highlighted. When I moved the pointer to them, they gave me a pop-up window for gameadvance and information on a lot of things. Is this going on for everyone, or just my computer? It is very disconcerting and if it is my computer, I will check out to see if some site slipped something past me. Otherwise, just wanting to know if others have the same problem.

I noticed no such things.

This will be a toolbar or other "AddOn" that you've installed in your browser (either knowlingly or mistakenly). It will highlight words and then direct you to it's own site.
Nothing to do with us - but you've probably realised that as it's happening on other sites too?

Yep, I realize that now. But, this was the first site since I downloaded something from gameadvance. I am trying to delete it from my computer as it is driving me crazy.
