What about all the legitimate links people post? Will we still be able to see those?

Thanks Jane Quilter! I hated that hyperlink too.

It only rids you of viglink hyperlinks.

i just ignore it. by opting out, i'm afraid they'll notice me & i'll get more unwanted nasties from them. and since we now know that it comes back after opt out ..i am more leary of attracting attention.

This answered a question I just posed in another thread. Thanks! I found it distinctly annoying because I assumed the highlighted "quilt" was an intentional link.

Did you reload your computer? Some updates don't work until you do that.

I think that happened to me. I unsubscribed from some junk email and now I don't get those anymore but get a lot of others, including male enhancement, dentures, etc.
