Where are you seeing these ads? Please post a link to an example so we can examine what's going on.
my computer is down right now i am on my phone the ads are linked words if you click on them it brings you to an ad. http://www.somanycrafts.com. i have links but not all of them are mine. depending in the browser i am using the banners are not showing. this is a big traffic weekend for me and nothing seems to work right.
i just went through my post and the pictures were missing (safari). I didnt see any ads this time. Same happened in firefox. i dont remember what browser I was using when i saw ads most likely exploer 9 or i just updated to chrome. it says its an old version but the updates kept failing i am doing a safe mode spyware/malware check now.
There are several browser add-ons which turn words into ad links. Make sure you haven't got any of those.
@somanycrafts
raincoster is right there is a text enhance one that does what you are describing. WordPress does not use text-enhanced link ads. It's caused by browser extension that was installed in the browser. 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.
so you are also saying if my viewers have those ad ons, it doesnt matter if i have them off or on they will see those annoying ads, right?
Correct, it's the add-on itself that is maliciously inserting the ads. We aren't doing it.
well that stinks. At least i know there isnt exteas
in there.
You should be able to find the extension causing the trouble by deactivating each one individually.
Then, you could definitely write a blog post about it to tell your readers. :)
great idea!
