They're links to something, probably an inimical something for your computer. Be careful when you do it, but if you pass your cursor over them, you can see the link addresses along the bottom of your IE browser. Not sure if it's the same on other browsers. Do NOT(!!!!) click on one.

The same (or slightly varied) message with imbedded links has been posted on 917 forums or blogs, according to a Google search for the key word in the link.gsabc wrote:They're links to something, probably an inimical something for your computer.

I know we want our moderators to keep a fairly hands-off approach, but I agree that this is one entry that should be deleted with extreme prejudice.

I agree - the links are to a site called "analfinder" and I'm pretty sure it's not somewhere I would want to go. Please, Mr. Administrator, please, get rid of this message.MarleysGh0st wrote:Oh, yes.
