Vibrant Media Links on DriverHeaven?

I have noticed that some keywords on www.hardwareheaven.com are double underlined advertising links from Vibrant Media. Is this intentional, or do I have some sort of Spyware on my machine that Spybot and Ad-aware can't remove?

Thanks,
Sargash

i think he means the yellow double underlined text in news.... due to the intellitxt ..... it's not spyware.... it's the site.. you can turn it off if you wish but simply click OFF near the top of the page.... It's a form of advertising that isn't intrusive.. that why it's there
