When I hold my mouse cursor over most any part of the front page except the forum links, it makes my cursor a hand. The URL at the bottom of my screen is for that site. It's acting kind of like an invisible modal, if that's possible.

I see the same thing too. Almost everything that isn't a link or the body of a post is turned into a link to "editing for authors".

Mac updated the banner.

My computer is non-functioning now, so let me see if I can fix it using my iPad.

Please ignore the cursing.

It partially worked for me. Now it seems to stop linking at the 'log out' part of the user CP bar.

Oh, but my UserCP profile is still linking away.

When I try to use the username and login at the top of the page, it doesn't work and leads me directly to the banner ad site. But, trying the post reply at the bottom of the thread got me in. It didn't before.

Have you emptied your cache?

Emptying the cache and refreeishing the page are crucial, because otherwise you're still looking at the old version.

Sorry it took so long--there's no way for me to increase the size of the text in the html editor for the forums on my iPad, and it's like someone with normal vision trying to edit 4pt type.

Thanks for the heads-up and patience folks.

Even without emptying things and what not it now seems to be working fine for me (on Firefox, latest version). Had a click around and all the weird linkies seem to have gone from the user CP and the new threads page.

Phew!
