Hi and good morning to all!!

I am going over my pending auctions for launch tonite and when I scroll down to the payment types accepted, the "Personal check" is underscored. When I click on that, I am taken (without my permission) to a check ordering service.

Any suggestions as to how I get rid of that?

Thanks in advance--you guys are the best!!

In Vendio, I selected personal checks and put an auction in Pending and it did not have a hyperlink for personal check.

What service are you using to list?

Wow, that is scarry. Is it called Keyword spamming, that when you type in Personal check there is a program out there that can enter that without your knowledge. I list through vendio and there is a section that you put in your preferences about your payments. It always appears on my auction page but I never have to type it in when I do my auctions as it is there permanent. Just another perk from Vendio. Only way you can change it is to go into your preferences. Maybe you need to check into that, that is if you list through vendio. Is it in all your auctions? Keep us posted.

Could it be sometype of "Spyware"? There are so many of them it boggles the mind.

When I was designing web pages in a corporation I would have others in the department test the navigation. I noticed on one of the computers common words in the text would be hyperlinks that went to unrelated sites. I knew that I did not place the links but we discovered that the young man had downloaded a file sharing program, I think Kazai but don't share files so I may have the wrong name. When he removed that program the hyperlinks disappeared.
