Sounds like you've picked up some advertising spyware somehow - I'd advise doing a really thorough malware/spyware check.

If you wanted, you could download a free version of Malwarebytes here: http://www.malwarebytes.org/

Used malaware bytes showed up nothing. But Eset has just picked it up sushi.com.  Got rid of it now.

Was driving me mad it was highlighting words in all the threads, and taking me to associated sites.

Just took me to a tyre advert after reading sheryl's thread with the word tyre in it.
