EDIT: In post #530 the words "new account" are underlined and linked to an ad.
This is you, not MR; I see no underlined words. You've probably picked up some kind of malware that inflicts underlines and ads on internet content.

There's a few ways to go about getting rid of it; if the links all go to the same network of ads, google for solutions based on that; if it's only in one browser, google for help with that, otherwise, run an antivirus program and check out malwarebytes.org's forums for specific help.
