targetwords

[PS]

In my Internet explorer i get several words that are
underlined as "search.targetwords.com" and when you click
on them they take you to a search page. Many times these
target words are part of a link I want to go to but if it
has a targetword it goes there instead of the desired
link. I emptied all my cookies and searched for a
program called targetwords but have had no luck. Does
anyone know how to turn it off?
thank you very much!
