Why all of a sudden are sites (including this one and ones that I am developing) inserting their own links? They are always in yellow. Is this Microsoft's "Smart Tags"? I thought this was part of Office XP and FP 2002. I do not have FP 2002 so why is this appearing.

How can I disable this. I know there was a way to disable smart tags but I am not sure if that is what this is.

Huh??

I am not seeing any yellow links/tags??

Maybe you can post a screenshot so we can see it? Which browser/verion are you using?

khiser0001, it's not the web-sites, it's a third party program that is doing this. I am experiencing the same thing you are. Came to find out after that after I installed the napster clone KaZaA, that it also installs a program called Top Text.

Does that look fimilar? Anyways, if that is it then you can uninstall it through your ADD/REMOVE PROGRAMS. Hope this helps.

Thanks. That sounds right however it does it on a machine that never has had Kaza, Napster, or any other program such as this on it.

I will remove from this machine though and see what happens.

Thanks again
