I've mentioned before that I have been having computer problems. Now I have noticed that when I am at a site or reading a thread here at pet talk that sometimes a word will be highlighted and underlined. I know it should not be this way. For example I was reading a post and it had the word car in it. I could put my mouse on it and it would take me to a place for car insurance, in one post the word lonely was in it and I could click on it and go to a dating service, one had the word "house" so it was for a mortgage place. Theyare all leading to some type of advertisment. What is this? Do I have a virus or something? I am such a computer idiot and have no idea what is going on. Also, sometimes my screen flashes like someone else is opeing a a new page or something. I don't know I can't explain it very well. If it wasn't for me wanting to be on Pet Talk I think I would have thrown this thing away a long time ago...lol

Thanks for any advise.....Robin
