  I noticed, since yesterday, the apearence of advertising on the pages of the three blogs that i have on WordPress.com. No problem whith that, since the Adds are located on top or bottom of the pages. But to add links on words on the texts posted, whith no relation whith the content of the post? I dont think is a respectfull attitude whith the users of WordPress. Is this some kind of virus?
  Thanks for your answer.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Possibly. These things usually come from within your browser or computer.

  It isn’t coming from WordPress though.

  You have a problem with your browser – a bad add in or virus in the browser – WordPress.COM does not use links from words

  The advertising comes from http://www.browsetosave.info/
  Following the instructions provided by the site, I still cannot uninstall it.
