highlighted word links

[jeff]

in my browser at any given website, common words
like "job" or "movies" are highlighted and i am offered an
option of doing a search for more info on said word if i
click it, but i want to get rid of the green underlined
links! if i want to search for something i can do it on my
own, this is annoying as hell

Sounds like your browser has been hijacked by some malware. Download
and run Ad-Aware (www.lavasoftusa.com), a free adware remover. Make
sure you update the program before running it, to get rid of the most
recent malware.
