I haven't seen this addressed so I need to ask. After the shut down this week of Class Creator I have noticed that some of the words are now in blue. I have an announcement on the home page about filling out a survey. All the words were in green. Now the word survey is in blue and underlined. I have noticed this on a few other pages. On my forums the word recipe is also underlined and in blue. The words aren't always words that I have typed. I see on some profiles the word Drive and working are also blue and underlined. Is there still a problem with the sites and we should ignore it?

H Ann, Your post had me return to one of my sites in search of anything different than what I had entered. I chose the largest site to find nothing changed. That shared, I do clear my browsers' cache daily, which may/may not have something to do with it. I believe we should scan all our pages on a regular basis. Thanks for posting.

Gwen, please try viewing my site and see if the word survey is in blue for you. It is on the home page at the top. Let it load for a few seconds and let the shamrocks fall a bit. Maybe it is my computer. I cleared my cache and it is still blue and underlined.

I looked and didn't see the word "survey" in blue. More likely, you installed an "adware" product and when you click the word "survey", it will bring up an advertisement for something or a survey to take. Sometimes these products get installed with a new toolbar. Maybe someone else who uses your computer clicked some link somewhere and it got installed. I suggest doing a malware scan of your system. I use http://www.malwarebytes.org/ (unpaid product endorsement) I also believe, but don't know for sure that if you try a different browser, the word "survey" might not be blue.

Hi Bonita, Are you saying you didn't get Brad's email? If so, that's odd. Maybe I received yours... I sure had enough of them.

No, I didn't get it. Not sure why. I should double check so I don't miss anything else!

I have some kind of bug I am trying to find and get rid of and I just wated o be sure about this first. Thanks.

It is a program that you can run once in a while. It isn't a background process, but is a scan-when-you-need-it program.
