Adware?

My computer highlights some words, like Ford, f150, mustang, etc that are found on this site in green and when they're scrolled over a small advertising window pops up. Is there something wrong with my computer, or is this built into FTE?

thanks
-paul

I personally think it is worth every penny (and I have to trasfer the $15.99 over to Canadian dollars!) You get access to the ClubFTE forum (WAY fun in there), no ads and a few other things. If you sign up for 3 years ($45.99) you get a free FTE T-Shirt mailed to you.

Even if I got NOTHING out of it I would still sign up. Why? Because it helps support this GREAT site that I get hours of enjoyment out of EVERYDAY!

Just my $0.02

Pricey membership??
I've saved thousands, in advice alone. I **** away more in newspapers that I never read.
got an old beater and almost new superduty, and a daugher going to college, I need all the help i can get. But I digress.
I second what jake said.

$15.99/year is expensive? I pay $89/year for premium membership on one the forums I visit on a regular basis. I feel the guy deserves my support for the upkeep of a great site.

I doubt that I could repay the value of information I have received here. More importantly, is the new friends / acquaintances I have made. Most of which I will likely never get to shake their hands but, consider friends nevertheless. Can't place a value on that.

I dare say I could find myself stranded anywhere in the United States Of America...or Australia for that matter...and find an FTE extended hand...more like open arms actually.
