Certain things highlighted as if they were links
Even in my posts and I know I haven't linked anything like that.
So far I have seen scissors and sewing machines. Or maybe I have finally gone off the deep end and its just me.

Scissors is highlighted but not sewing machines. It must be some type of advertising.
editted to add, in this post sewing machines came out highlighted!
and now they're not! Crazy!

I presumed it earned the site money if you click on them. I just noticed blouse highlighted on a thread too, but yes scissors and sewing machine always seem to be. In the beginning I thought the person posting had done it and it would click to their pic so was a bit disappointed it's just goes to a general ebay search

When you just hover your mouse over those highlighted words, it says "link added by VigLink". Wikipedia has information about VigLink here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VigLink
From the article, VigLink looks like it's a "in-text advertising and marketing service" that has been added to over 100,000 vBulletin forums and many other sites.
PatriceJ could, and probably will, add more. I don't think it's anything to be concerned over, but better to find out if we're safe than to be sorry (we clicked!).

i just ignore them.
