We have those evil green links that add themselves to various words beginning to appear on here.
What's up?

Sounds like you have some adware, 'cause I don't see this issue.

Its called IntelliTXT and it can be disabled, and I bet Rollie put them on as a way to gain revenue because we all know how expensive server upgrades are.

Sounds like you use adblock to block the most annoying ads on the web like me

I... don't think so. AVG AV didn't pick anything up; I'll have a look with AVG AS...

Well Sky, I did remove it from the forums, it's still in place on the site though. Will be watching and it it's more of a hassle than it's worth, I'll remove them from there as well.

I had actually installed a greasemonkey script to get rid of them like last week, haha. Apparently there's a few other companies besides vibrant media that also use these adds, so it blocks those too
