Something weird is happening while I am posting

This has never happened to me before, and I am not sure if it is allowed on the boards. That is why I am hoping someone can help me fix this issue. The last couple of posts I made in different boards, there would be certain words that are highlighted and underlined as if they were part of a link. This has never shown up before, and not sure how to fix it. Is this something new that the boards are doing and I am just unaware of? If anyone could help me figure this out, I would greatly appreciate it. I just don't want to be doing something that I don't mean to be doing and would cause an infraction.

Under some obscure circumstances I am not sure of, some words in some posts are turned into advertising links. This can be done intentionally by the poster also.

Come to think of it, if you have not "logged on" this phenomenon is more likely.

Thank you for your reply. I am always logged in when I go on the boards, it was just something that I never witnessed before. Thank you, you set my mind at ease

Do you have an example?

I feel like there's some spyware out there that will turn randomly selected words into links. I would recommend a good spyware and virus scan of your PC.
