Default How to get rid of hyperlink "quilt" words
Forum member, Tartan, says "The highlighted words in posts are a new feature by viglink. It is a hyperlink that generates income everytime you click on the highlighted words. I have good ad blockers but it doesn't eliminate this one."

 If this annoys you can go to www.viglink.com/opt-out/ and click the disable button.

Thanks for the info. I haven't noticed this before and have been running Ad blocker for over 3 years now. I DO block third party cookies.
