Today I log in to CD and the Forum Board page is bedevilled by coloured keyword links.  If you accidentally hover over them up pops an ad.

anyone else having this?

Not happy not happy at all :(

Oh it's worse than I thought!

Links on ALL the pages now!

Think you have downloaded a virus somehow. Sounds like adwords i hate it, its a pain.  Scan your pc

Service as usual here too.

Thanks folks

Got our inhouse admin (AKA DS :-D ) on to it.

It wasn't a virus as such, but an extension called Web Save in Firefox Add ons !  No idea where it came from, but DS has sorted it.

Going to block it via our router settings to avoid it coming back :-D

I thought it might be punishment because of something I posted last night :-D

Firefox is a bitch for that, it's the reason I stopped using it after sticking with it for years.  I kept stopping it, it kept coming back :-(

I have it too :( very annoying.

I had it last week. It took me ages to find the file causing it and eliminate it. It had come as a 'free gift' with a small program that I'd bought and downloaded
- By Dill [gb] Date 01.02.14 12:25 UTC
OK well that went well - NOT!

For some reason DS reset the router and we had no internet until this morming.

Had to phone tech support.

Sorted now. And we're getting sent a new router to replace the one that's 10 yo

For those struggling with Web Save by NAV-Links.com,  you can block it by using your router settings

To remove it from Firefox,  go to Tools, Add Ons, Extensions and click remove.   :-)   then reboot firefox.

Hope this helps :-)
