    Default Is it just me...

    ...or are other people getting a automatic link thing happening that links names of suppliers, etc that you type to a web page?

    I have it too Carl. Not terribly pleased, but I believe it is part of this websites software.

    Oh that's OK then, just thought it might be some sort of software that's invaded my computer...

    These links seem to come and go. One day there are several and then nothing for a bit. May just be some metawords the ads are looking for. Could care less as long as they are not automatic hijackers.
    If you don't care where you are, you are not lost.

    Yes, there is some software tweaking going on at the moment, it's not spam. gugi could explain it better in technical terms....

    I think you can disable it.

    Not a bad idea in a way; at least it gives you quick access to a supplier; and you can make your own mind up from there...
