Are you using Google chrome as a browser?

If so click on the three lines top right hand corner of the screen ( customise and control google chrome)
Move the cursur down to tools on the menu and then click on " extentions", on the sub menu
you will see an icon "bcool 1.0", either disable it ( untick the box) or click on the bin symbol to remove it from chrome

Close the forum and open it up again

Thats quite a common thing on some websites, its just links to products or websites that relate to the word that is highlighted. Think you can turn the option off in some browsers. I get it a lot when reading the problem page on the dailystar website, that page is full of links.

Have you added any 3rd party toolbars or the like recently?
