An amazing and puzzling discovery. |
|
My sig line is an original composition. I made it up myself. Now when I put my cursor on "real estate" the arrow becomes a hand and a little pop-up ad box appears. If I click on "real estate" I am taken to another website advertising real estate. That really pisses me off. How'd they do that? Is it the same for you? :grr:

If I move my mouse over 'real estate' nothing happens.
However, Windows was supposed to be putting in tags for things like that to happen. Caused a BIG fuss, too.
