I thought is was Techimo doing some add work, but it in other places so it's coming from my computer.
Any ideas where I start looking to get rid of it?
Example: insurance
In my computer this will be double green underlined, as is the word "work" in line one.

I think I found it. My wife got something called Gamevance to go along with her Farmville, and other Facebook things.
I uninstalled it, and it's gone...
Until she gets suckered into reinstalling it...
Thanks |

Or buy her a cheap laptop for internet use. Or create another account on the computer for her with minimum access. Then just zap that account when she gets it fubar'd. |

Or just block Fakebook (et al) so that she can't get to it...
(just be ready for the ear-ache you'll undoubtedly get if you do...  )
