Topic: Strange links showing in IE 6 - can you check for me?

My client is reporting strange links showing up in IE 6 on this site.  Can you guys check for me?  I'm not seeing them...

She is seeing them in the top right corner where the toll free line is.  Also, she is seeing them within the page content. 

Do you see them?

Not necessarily saying she is making things up, but I'm not seeing anything. Perhaps add

<meta name="MSSmartTagsPreventParsing" content="True">

to the header, in case it is some sort of weird IE thing that is adding them?

I'll try that.  She did send me screenshots, so I know she's not seeing things.  I've actually seen these links on my mom's computer, but I have never known what creates them.

Yeah, Smart Tags seems to make the most sense.

Thanks, Ben.  smile  I added that line and am waiting to hear back from her on whether that fixed the issue.
