Green Things.

[stewey]

Why do some of the posts contain words in red which are underlined and have a green arrow next to them?

[cupid04]

Ed's name comes out in red sometimes. Don't know why.

[stewey]

And if you click on the arrow you get an ad.

[Prudie]

Have you got it out of the blue stewey? There were quite a few threads a while back about this and it was a virus/malware but that was lots of words, not just AB Editor and I think Mollykins which also did it (deliberately by Ed)

[EcclesCake]

Mollykins and ABEd come up red but I don't think I have ever seen a green arrow!

[Baldric]

Nor me!

[stewey]

It just started this morning, Prudie.

[EcclesCake]

Oh, I thought ABEd went red too.

[EcclesCake]

you've got a bug Stewey, take 600mg Ibuprofen and monitor the situation, or

If you know full details of your system Methyl will advise, or

I recommend a bowl of chicken soup, it cures everything.

;-)

[stewey]

I just read one of our newspapers on line and it's happening there too. Obviously I must have a computer problem.

[Prudie]

put "red underlined words" in the search box and you will see quite a few related questions

[stewey]

Thanks, Eccles; the monitor is where I'm seeing this; therefore, I'll take your advice and monitor the monitor:)

[stewey]

Thanks, Prudie; I'll take a look at those.

If you are seeing anything green then you have been infiltrated by Martians

[stewey]

Either that or I've been slimed.

Isn't the Green Arrow a comic book super-hero:-)

[stewey]

Ken, I thought that the Green Arrow was William Tell's autobiography.

[Ken4155]

Think you've got him mixed up with Robin Hood, stewey, Lincoln Green and all that:-) Billy Tell's autobiography was titled; "How To Scare The Living Daylights Out Of Your Offspring (and other tricks with the crossbow)

[stewey]

Very good:) However, I still need to get to the core of this problem.

[stewey]

And no; my computer is not an Apple.

It gives you the pip if you get a virus on your computer. Run Malware and see if that helps.
