Does anyone here know anything about ContactLink?  Suddenly, tonight, on this site, I started getting unsolicited ads off of user created text.  It bypasses my popup blocker.  I'll let you know if I get it on other sites online.  But, if you know how to get rid of it, and/or where I might have gotten it, please let me know.  Thanks!

TexasToest: I have not seen anything strange on this (or any) site. On the http://brainking.com/en/Board?bc=52 discussion board, there are a couple of links on the top about checking for spyware and such which is always good to run those every once and awhile. (Which reminds me it's about time for me to do the same.)

BIG BAD WOLF:  Interesting on your message that spyware was double underlined, and kicks up an ad.  I've already written to Kontera, who owns ContactLink, told them they are the scourge of the earth, and anyone who puts software on my machine without asking should be sentenced to life in prison.  I DID ask how to get rid of the nuisance.  Thanks for your suggestion.  Think I'll run mine right now.

Fencer:  Thank you.  I will try that.  It's not happening anywhere else, so that must be it.

TexasToest: What's the problem, anyway? Get used to strange things.

Fencer:  Hahahaha!  I hate to say it, I'm used to a lot of strange things.  But, unsolicited ads are more than strange!!  They interfere with my enjoyment of the net.  Ever heard that before anywhere? 

Thanks, Fencer, that seems to have worked.
