Underlined keywords in IE browser and other problems

[Sophia]

Hello,
I have IE 6.0.

I have two problems.

1. I suddenly started getting some keyword words displayed
on a webpage underlined in light brown, it is not a
regular link, but underline. These are "keyword" words
like travel, insurance. If you position your cursor there,
it shows some airline booking or insurance related
website. How can I get rid of it?

2. We have google toolbar with popups blocker, not sure if
this is related, but many websites even if I enable popup,
IE browser cannot bring up. The status bar shows URL's I
am clicking and then shows done but page is not displayed.
After that, I cannot click on any link, the page seems to
be frozen.

Any help will be appreciated.
Sophia

First eliminate any scumware.
See
Dealing with Unwanted Spyware, Parasites, Toolbars and Search Engines
http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/unwanted.htm

Note that AdAware and SpyBot S & D will each catch some things the other
won't. Also, each need to be updated before every use, even when just
downloaded. There's also a lot more to do than just those two programs.

If trying everything at that site does not fix the problem please post back
in the same thread.
