I’ve noticed ads showing up when I hover over certain red underlined links. The advertising company is called “text enhance.” Is this just my computer? here’s an example: “News and information on your favorite manufacturers!” for me, the word information is red and underlined, and there’s and ad when I hover over it or click on it. I think this is something with my computer, but i’d like to know for sure. Thanks ---

I haven’t noticed that on any threads. I suspect it’s some sort of add-on or spyware on your end. Yuki ---

Do a security check like you said. I think I had a laptop that did something like that. It’s broken now. (From overheating) Hope you get it fixed! ---

I’m using google chrome The security check actually turned up nothing, but I did some googling and it turns out it was an app I downloaded for chrome. I deleted it and it seems to be gone now. > [@vegabomb](#): > > One of my laptops has this. I’ve had no luck getting rid of it so far.

Find the name of whatever the ad’s for, google how to uninstall it. I had mouse-over links for random words before that was quite annoying. I went to uninstall it but I couldn’t find it on the list at all. Ended up having to download a specific program to remove it.
