One of my users says that if the post text starts with the letter "A", her A drive is activated when she hovers and brings up the tooltip box. Anyone else seen this?
That sounds like a virus like the HiJack Virus also. I know a user that everytime she posted a post with the word Book it created a link to amazon. She had to run, Spy Search & Destroy and also Adware to finally get rid of it. Do a websearch on the word Hijack or go to Symatec or Nortons sites and look there.
Is there a way to use this in the threaded mode? I know it'd be a lot easier for some of my folks to mouse over the list of threaded messages to find one they are lookin for. I always read in flat so I never thought of it before...
You could apply the similar code to the showthreaded script - basically you are adding B_Body to the query - limiting it, and including it in the title tag of the link.
