Go to your user CP and then go to options......go down to "default thread subscription mode" and click "do not subscribe" that should solve the problem.

I got about 80 of those things today too. No message in them really, just nonsense and an explanation of what a link back was. Not that I understood that explanation. It did seem quite odd. They have been deleted but there is something odd going on with the website, these were not the usual notices of posts to threads I had subscribed to.....

Bob D, you really need to look into this.

Over 80 for me also. I hope someone finds the problem because these aren't the email notification. They started with threads from April and there wasn't any new post in the thread

Bob! Help! I surrender! I shut down the computer last night, all fat and happy, and just opened outlook up a few minutes ago and received 162 link backs! It sounds like I'm the winner! It sounds like something is terribly wrong with the system..... Please fix! I'm buried!
