I FOUND the problem! I did a LOT of searching online and I found a cure for getting rid of the “text enhance” which is what it’s called.

I deleted some Adobe programs. I can’t remember which ones, right now as it was real late at night..LOL. But I THINK it was flash and/or shockwave.

Just for anyone’s information I DID download AdBlock Plus which worked great getting rid of those bad links, but for my web site, I have affiliate ads that I WANT to show. When I ran the Adblock Plus, it worked TOO good and wouldn’t let my GOOD ads show.

So, after I deleted those Adobe programs, BOTH my browsers (Firefox and Internet Explorer) were clean again! ?? Hopes that helps anyone else having that problem.

Thanks!

I used Spybot, but those weird links are still there. Are you sure there is nothing I can check in my files, to see where these links are coming from?

I’ve had so many problems with this site, if I can’t get rid of these site, I’m just going to shut down my website and forget all of this. It’s getting way too frustrating. I’ve had all kinds of issues with my site for like a week now and I’ve basically had no life. I had no idea a blog site was supposed to take every minute of my days, like it has.

Any suggestions? Aren’t there any files I can check for weird stuff to find out where these links are coming from?

Thanks!

Now, the Internet Explorer browser IS displaying the dark font correctly now.

But the Firefox (which is the one I always use) is still displaying the font as light blue, and the version is 19.0.

I just went on my OTHER computer (it’s a desktop) and those links are NOT there..just like on your computer.

Something else I noticed, is that on BOTH my computers, the posting TITLE color is wrong too. It’s supposed to be a dark blue, but it’s a light blue. kind of weird.

ANYways. So knowing all that, what do you think is the problem? And what do I need to do do solve this?

I HAVE already started running my spybot on my laptop (the “infected” computer). Is that going to help?

What do you suggest?

Thanks so much for your help!

I just tried a different browser and it’s all still there.

So, I’m going to try my desktop computer.

Hmm. I’ll go try that now and see what happens.

Thanks!

OK, I’m doubly freaking out now!!

I mean.. there are MORE links now…even in my post above. In my post above…there are strange links there TOO!!!!!

Do you see them? In the words “my blog”..and even in the word “thank!”

Please help!

I figured it out!

Never mind! ??

LOL! Ok…ok..I’ll go find out how to use it. ??

Thanks for all your help!

OMG, I downloaded that Firebug and it looks major complicated! I’m going to have to tackle that tomorrow!

I have one more question as to where to find font colors, so I’m going to start a new post and try to tackle THAT tonight ??

Thanks!

ok. I’ll do that!

Thanks again for the help! ??

Really? Why is that?

I don’t know enough about the code to know what to pull out….and what to keep in there.

For example, originally I DID copy a small piece of code from the parent theme that I THOUGHT was the font color. I copied those 4 lines of code into my child theme. But nothing changed because I had pulled the wrong stuff.

How do I do this if I don’t know enough code, to know what to specifically pull out?

Thanks!

No, I don’t’ use Firebug…what is that?

So, here’s all that is in my child theme CSS:

/*
Theme Name: scrappy Child
Description: Child theme for the scrappy theme
Author: Your name here
Author URI: https://example.com/about/
Template: scrappy
Version: 0.1.0
*/
@import url(‘../scrappy/style.css’);

SO, now do I just copy and paste all the text from the parent CSS, right underneath this last line?
@import url(‘../scrappy/style.css’);

Thanks!

OK..it’s back to normal! ??

I changed something in the customization area. Honestly, I don’t even remember what…lol!

I have to tweak some font colors too, BUT…it’s ALL BACK!!

Thank you so much for your patience and time!
