Hey, guys. So our website has a weird link advertising a “cock rating website” in the upper right corner of our screen – I’m assuming it’s attached to the header, because it appears on every page. The link doesn’t lead anywhere (fortunately). The weirdest part is that I don’t see it on my screen, whether logged in or out. It’s only visible on other’s screens. (Such as my boss’s, where I first discovered it. Fun.)
Does anyone have any idea how to remove this? I don’t see it on my editing screen at all.
Weird advertisement in upper corner of website?

Hi TNinja
I cannot see the advertising banner in any browser which means it is most likely a browser plugin or adware on your boss’s computer.

Magus –
I would agree with you, except it was also visible on my friend’s computer yesterday morning. I don’t know much about browsers – do you think it’s still adware if it’s on both?
Thanks!
Hi TNinja
Its possible, or it may be that it is targeting base on geolocation, or you have to have made a previous visit to a specific page on the site. Do you have any site security plugins. If not please try installing this one and running a full scan of your root folder once registered (free)
