Annoying Popups

In every post there are key words that are underlined. Just passing the cursor over these highlighted words causes an annoying popup add to appear. Can this behavior be turned off?

RE: Annoying Popups

Frisco,

These are ads that help pay for the forum. It's east to disable them. Just right click on one of the highlighted words and in the top right corner (I believe) you can click on the little x (once again, I believe) and it should pull up a webpage about the ads. Go all the way to the bottom of that page and click on disable.

RE: Annoying Popups

Yes, they are the most annoying kind of advertising besides the ones that popup and demand that you click them to shut them off. I HATE POPUPS!!!![8D]
