How do I get rid of these intrusive underlined commercial links across my blog?
-
spam links to random words (double underlined in blue highlight), are appearing all over my site with a link to shopodo.com. I am concerned this will put people off reading as it’s very intrusive and I do not endorse any commercial companies. I am at http://www.subliminalspaces.wordpress.com , Thanks, Roberta McDonnell, email (email visible only to moderators and staff)

If the ads you see are found at the end of blog posts then provided you see this small About These Ads link http://en.wordpress.com/about-these-ads/ then what you are seeing is ads placed by WordPress.com
If you are seeing any ads aside from those with that link then that’s a browser-ad-on issue, or in some cases, it’s embedded into free games downloaded from the internet. You have an issue on your browser or computer. Those ads are not placed on your site by WordPress.com. They are being placed there by software on your own computer, unfortunately. These ads are sometimes caused by malware or a virus, but more often it is due to a browser extension or toolbar that you may have installed in your browser.
These sites have further explanation and suggestions for eliminating the ads:
