"Ads not by this site" - harry
Why are your posts placing the text "Ads not by this site" at the end of
the previous post on your responses? Looks daft and breaks the convention that you don't change the post you are replying to (except by dint of snipping). I have not (so far) seen it on anyone else's responses. -- Rod |

Perhaps it's GG way of telling us that we are missing all their sponsored crap when we read Usenet posts via er,Usenet. -- Graham. %Profound_observation% |

If I use google groups (old or new version) I don't see the text added in any replies I compose, even with AB+ turned off, I didn't go so far as actually posting them. Looks like GG postings now go through a couple of SMTP hops, which they didn't some time ago. |

The Google is much easier to follow threads and you can find old threads much easier.I use the "Old" Goggle. They are really annoying. Anyone know how to get rid of them? |

One thing I've noticed is that Outlook Express occasionally removes things
like OT: from the subject lines, but not all the time. Weird. Brian -- From the Sofa of Brian Gaff Reply address is active "polygonum" wrote in message ...

I don't think they're coming from Google, more likely you've picked up some malware that's injecting adverts into web pages as you view them, do they appear if you use a different browser? Its from a bunch of related browser hijack programs... SaveAs, SearchNew tab, Search assistant, web search, coupon companion etc. Generally they can be uninstalled fairly easily, although you will need to manually drop them as add ons from the browser. Malwarebytes anti-malware will have most of them away. -- Cheers, John. /================================================== ===============\ | Internode Ltd - http://www.internode.co.uk | |-----------------------------------------------------------------| | John Rumm - john(at)internode(dot)co(dot)uk | \================================================= ================/ |

Remove the "Ads not by this site" Browser Hijacker If you find it then simply scan your computer with AdwCleaner AdwCleaner Download It's a great tool designed to remove adware, toolbars, etc. Works even better than Malwarebytes. Cheers! |
