I'm still finding HTML links in my hubs that I have not put there. The one today was tomatoes highlighted and it took me to someone's hub I didn't know. Is there anyone else having this problem?
This effect is normally caused by viruses on the computer you are using. Try pointing out a hub with one of these links and see if people using other computers also see it.
How old are the hubs? Were they inserted by the discontinued Hubpages feature that used to insert "relevant" links (can't remember what it's called)?
It used to do that at random, link up words to other random hubs or topics.
Hi, I have just started a new hub, and these links about 8 so far are appearing . I am using Chrome with the Windows 10. I have noticed the Windows 10 seems to assist anything that will bug chrome.
Are they in any of your currently published hubs?
Just had a look, and it seems that all my hubs are infected with likely hundreds of links.
I looked at five of your hubs and they are fine. As I suggested earlier, the problems is probably a piece of malware on your computer adding links that only you can see. I suggest running a good malware detecting program. I suggest Adware, it is effective and free. http://www.lavasoft.com/
Yes, Thank you for this info. I will get to it. Colleen
Mine were in older hubs so far I haven't seen them in new or edited hubs.

We've realized for a while that with our existing tools it can be very time consuming to manage links across a large portfolio of hubs. Many Hubbers have tried to handle the interconnecting of related hubs using Link and RSS capsules. That works to an extent, but we feel that...

For those of us who are testing out the new suggested links tool on Hubpages, what do you think to it?I have only been messing around with it for an hour, however I have to admit I am pretty impressed, it seems to provide a much simpler way to link to other hubs, especially when you previously had...

Hello,I try not to make waves with "How Hubpages Operates" and I am not sure if this singular problem is having a huge effect or not.But, I've noticed that many hubs I had connected to other hubs via "embedded" links(anchored text) have not been coming up or being flagged as...

I'm trying to write a hub, linking to a couple of my other hubs, but the links don't work, saying the page cannot be found and I'm getting warnings about broken links when I know the links aren't broken and that the hubs do exist. What is going on??? So many things seem to be faulty on HP these...

Dear Hubpages...Seems ANOTHER of my "roundup" app comparisons got flagged "overly promotional", AND "pixelated/watermarked pix/video" to boot. I don't get this "overly promo" flag, as all the links are to Appbrain, known Android software index. And yes, I...
