Hi Esmi,
I’m taking a look at those now. I’d like to know what’s happened though – had my site been hacked? Is this what happens i.e. spam in footer?
It looks like some sort of hack, yes. The links I gave above should help if you work through them in order.

I’ve asked a few friends to click my site and they can’t see the spam … it just seems to be my end? Any idea what that may be?
Can you see the spam?
the site is http://www.partnersinsoul.com/

More testing: Everyone I have asked to check the site they say they can’t see the spam (See screenshot)
I tested on another laptop I have at home (connected to the same router via wireless) and that also has the same problem.
SO the only way this could be happening to me is by some sort of IP address spam/hack?
It’s possible that your computer has been infected with adware or a virus of some kind.

Thanks for the link adpawl I will have a read through that.
Did a full virus/malware/spyware scan on both PC and Laptop, both are clean. No problems there.
I did another test this morning. I made a note of my IP address, went on my site and the spam was there as expected.
I restarted my router so I could obtain a new IP address. I then went back on to my website and the spam was gone.
So it’s definitely something to do with recognising IP addresses
