How to Eliminate Annoying Hyperlinks on Web Pages
WHAT ARE
THESE
DOUBLE
UNDERLINED
WORDS?
HAS MY
COMPUTER
BEEN HACKED?
Here’s what you do:
Click on the question mark and
OPT OUT MANUALLY
See example next slide.
It’s a small question mark – see it in the corner above?
TAKES YOU HERE

WHEW!
But what is it?
Commonly called in-text
advertising.
The double-underlined word is a keyword embedded within text
of a website.
Examples of the advertising
networks that provide this
service:
• Vibrant
• Text Enhance
• Kontera
You will only see the ads
when you hover over double
hyperlinked keywords. Hard
to ignore them.
Once you hover, the widget
will appear.
But I don’t remember opting in??
Either the website you are visiting offers this
service or …
Then you probably didn’t….
…there is a piece of software on your
computer that has decided to graciously offer
you this service.
Then you probably didn’t….
Say “no thanks” and opt out!
