Forums - General - Why am I getting this resultlink hyperlink under some words now on VGC?

Under some words people type I now get them hyperlinked to some stupid advertisement.  It says resultlinks on the bottom of the little box that shows up when hovering over the word.  Is this adware and even if it isn't how to I disable this.  I find it a little annoying..  Running spybot right now to see if I have anything.

Did VGC just sign up for this new ad crap? Regular ads are fine and all but this is taking it to a new level.  In another thread I saw the word money being hyperlinked so I am testing it out here.



i know. i went to a another profile, and every other word is a add



Well I know there's a resultlinks.com script on the page now so I guess that answers that question.



Well it seems to hyperlink words sometimes and other times it doesn't show up for that same word. Oh well I guess I have to get used to it.

Ahh, so it's not just me!



I'm yet to see this.

It seems to just pop up here and there and doesn't always show.  I have only noticed it a few times so far.

oh, and out of all the ad types, those are by far my most hated.
