I was reading through some faction descriptions and found this uner the triumvirate

Letter from Guildmaster Barlot of the http://elgea.illyriad.co.uk/#" rel="nofollow - by CouponDropDown - Illyriad Trade Council to Lady Vincenza of Lacona

My Lady,

May I be the first to congratulate you on a coup that must have take no small amount of planning!

Your http://elgea.illyriad.co.uk/#" rel="nofollow - by CouponDropDown - illustrious brothers must have been as surprised as I was to hear about your unilateral cancellation of The Triumvirate's trade agreement with the Lannigolds.


"

The links go to some coupon page (I did not click on them) I am presuming this is not on purpose, so thought this the best way to make the devs aware.

I'm not seeing that. Are you sure it isn't something up with your computer? Have you checked in multiple browsers?

You have the CouponDropDown Adware on your computer

This seems like a fairly good set of instructions on how to remove it:
