Linus, I am finding in text advertising in posts and have never encountered it before. Is new computer running IE and windows 7.

Is there a way to turn this off? Is very annoying.

We don't do any advertising so this will likely be something on IE.

These sites may give you a few ideas how to address it:

I don't use IE but I got the same thing happening in Chrome or Firefox (I don't recall which) and managed to jettison it by checking out the extensions in the browser settings.

In the browser, IE in your case, there should be a 'settings' option to click to do things to IE (or any other browser) like deleting cookies and browsing data, or setting up privacy stuff, et al.

There you should find 'extensions' which may or may not contain that horrible bit of advertising software and from where you may, or may not, be able to delete it.

I hope someone who uses IE can come 'interpret'.
