Is it just me or is this something new on TER?  Very annoying.

You know how some websites have certain words randomly highlited in a paragraph and they're links to other pages?  If your mouse hovers over one a pop-up appears?  For instance, as I type this the word "annoying" in my earlier message and the "email message" me on response are highlited.  Both give a pop up ad for AOL Career Builder.

Could be malware on my pc so I was wondering it anyone else is seeing it.  It's an advertising tactic that's been around forever but I'd never seen it on TER before today.  And I don't see it on some other sites I visit.

...never seen that here and don't see it now.

Try logging out of everything you are logged into. I once had something that didn't seem quite right, shut every thing down, rebooted and all was normal again.
