All of a sudden my forum has been taken over by intext advertising. It will highlight a word and then if you click or hover over that word, an advertisement box will pop up.

Does anyone know how to stop this for the forum? I am generating no revenue stream off that and have no desire to have this on the forum. There is an opt-out option within the advertisement box but I have a feeling that is an opt-out for the particular user only, not my entire forum. I need to get this off my entire forum.

Any ideas?

Have any other of your users complained? If not double check your own computer for malware, spyware, viruses, etc. On my forum when a user's complained about this sort of thing it has almost always been on their end.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
