Sometimes words in a post are underlined with an orange line and if I hover my mouse over it, then it pops up with some sh1tty advert.
I reckon that is not deliberate on Det's part so thought I would stick a wee notice in this section. It could be that it is a problem at my end, but it doesn't seem to happen on other sites and I have a ball-busting array of security on my PC. In case it is relevant, I use windows Vista and Firefox 2.0.0.5 browser with NoScript 1.1.6.06 Don't all jump on me using Firefox as is the recent trend, I tried Safari and didn't like it. And IE7 is installed but i refuse to use it. |

It's contextual advertising and with this instance it is deliberate. Unlike pop-up or pop-under advertising, which I would never deliberately and knowingly put in place.
The reason for the bright orange underlines, is so that people are easily aware that it is advertising and can avoid them if they so wish. |
