Spam Hack pop-ups linking from K2 article! was created by Thomas Murray
I'm using Joomla 1.5.25 with K2 v2.4.1
Everything works nicely but I have noticed that certain words in a published K2 article item are hyperlinked and when hovering over these words a pop up to a free lotto site or some such is displayed. This is unauthorised. Other sites are snatching my article's text to link to their sites! How is this possible?

See the image.

Attachment not found




When I edit the article there is no link to those sites. They only appear in publised text. Words like

happiness

,

opportunity

and

wisdom

trigger this.

What kind of hack is this and what do I do about it?

Hi Thomas,

it's not K2 bug.

it's just using 1 browser? witch one?

if it's just 1 browser maybe you have a Spyware inside your pc... or a tool that you have installed...

go to your extension/plugin browser to disabled it and remove it..

look this link:
