Ok--maybe its just a setting or something, but it seems that there are these numbers that are appearing on all my posts--anyone else have this? I have to go back and edit every post , PM, etc. Its kind of annoying and I am not sure why it started appearing.


See--here they are!!!!!

According to the page's source code, they are from a Google Ad.

As a side note Clay, I have been running a full system sweep for spybots every time I get off the computer and have found of late that if I haven't visited RPF in a given session...
there are no spybots to be "swept" from my computer.
I'm chalking it up to all the advertising going on here but still...food for thought.

Sigh.... really? With all of the people here who 1) don't have a very good understanding of technology 2) have a predisposition to believing conspiracy and 3) have a fear of changes on the site, you are going to throw that out as if to somehow imply visiting this site results in harmful spyware being installed on your computer? :thumbsdown
 
I agree, you're more likely to get spyware from Google chrome & Yahoo or Google search engines as they actually sell your information to people like search history, IP address, etc.

I watch google bounce off my firewall and my peer block every time I open it. :D
