Once I un-installed that program, everything returned normal. Lesson learned! Thank you so much for your assistance!

I downloaded a game from the aarp site a few days ago and my 'puter has been obnoxious ever since.

I wouldn't be surprised if that is the culprit.

I'll give it a try. It's good to know the orange links are self-activated and do not show for everyone. I downloaded a game from the aarp site a few days ago and my 'puter has been obnoxious ever since. Maybe the change was part of that package. Thanks again for your help.

This has come up before and it was caused by browser extension that was installed in the person's browser. http://wafflesatnoon.com/2011/10/05/seeing-unwanted-text-enhance-ads/

Deactivate all browser add-ons and extentions, run a full computer scan, and then log into your blog again without activating any browser add-ons or extensions and see if the links disappear or not.

They aren't applicable to the post and really detract from what I wrote. Is this some kind of advertising that I have to put up with, or did something go "tilt"??? What are my options? Please advise!
