I have the same problem. You will find them in on your tags page. Delete them. The annoying thing is that they appear in the body of the text if people search your site or access it from a reader.
It will put heaps of new people off because you look like a spammer.
All over my site. Have removed all tags and spam. Can’t see code embedded in the text anywhere.
Any advice appreciated!!

The other one that tries to auto insert a tag on every post is ‘youtube converter’.
Perhaps the solution is to change blog platforms.
-
It looks to me that you’ve both enabled Post by Email or something and that the spammer behind those links is posting them to your blogs that way. Disable it.

So people can’t sign up by email. They need to be on wordpress to subscribe? Sounds very limiting. But thanks for the helpful advice.

Look at the bottom of the last post. Same script on this page. Must be a virus on my machine hey? Another link about 25 enters automatically appeared at the bottom of this post! too!

Hi Rain
I’ve audited my email followers. None look like spammers. I am now getting the demonoid and keepvid links added in Reddit and wordpress.com. Must be another cause.
-
No, I’m not talking about your email followers. I’m talking about Post by Email, although there might be a different form of malware doing this. Update your malware and virus scanners and run a full system scan.

it’s not the tags. I found it in the “сategories” on the console. this is how it looks:

But when I opened them, I saw nothing:

And my system is clean….but I used another computer once, maybe it had the virus. But how can I remove it now? -

Hi rammira,
It looks like the links have been inserted into the Excerpt box beneath each post. You will need to go in and manually remove them.

I’m not sure how they got added in the first place. It could be a browser extension or malware. I’d try using a clean version of your browser to see if that helps, and if not, follow raincoaster’s advice.

@the1006, I’m not suggesting Post By Email is the culprit. Instead, my hunch is that the links are being inserted by something on your computer or browser. It would be interesting to see if you continue to have the same issues if you post from another browser or, in the event that your computer has malware, from a different machine.

Get them on a different machine. If you look at the code you can’t see the links. I also get it now on reddit which makes me think it is malware, but my anti virus – AVG and spybot don’t pick up anything

Hi there,
Jackie is out for the day but I didn’t want you to not get a response.
If you’re not able to see any code for the links and you’re also seeing them in multiple locations then you may very well have some sort of compromise.
While this information may not carry over 100%, here’s some information which I researched for a friend who was getting a different kind of spam banner inserted on pages:

Hi Amighty
Not getting advertising in wiki like that link.
The new one I am getting today in body of text in RSS readers (or if you use the search function on the site lessisbetter.org is :
‘descargar musica gratis descargar musica’

I see it using Firefox 21 http://lessisbetter.org/?s=natural+gas
You have a malware issue.
