Ad's in text, blue underlined

[Yugure]

Every time I go on a website that has text on it, some words are blue and double underlined, ad's...

Can someone help me remember which settings I accidental changed in my Firefox browser, because it doesn't do that in the others (IE)

Go to 'Uninstall or Change a Program' via 'My Computer' and have a look for any suspicious advert software that may have been installed on to your computer.

This has happened to me before, you can fix it by easily uninstalling the program.

EDIT: When you scroll over or click the words, does it open an ad?

Nothing suspicious there, last thing I installed was Adobe Reader X update on 1 Feb. The ads only started yesterday>.<

Yes, a small screen pops up when you hoover the mouse over the word

Hmm strange, seems like malware. Try Installing Malwarebytes and run a fullscan!

But first and foremost, try clearing your cache before you do that to see if it fixes anything. ^^

and it got rid of it for me.
Amazing addon actually, I have no adds at all now :3 Highly recommend it.

I did that too, so it were either the cache's or just the stupid ad block got deleted somenow>.<

Also, add NoScript that way only trusted websites can run scripts, and limited at that. NoScript is truly a security essential, period.

Another good recommendation is NoRedirect. This prevents advertisements that don't get blocked from forcibly redirecting your page. Of course, if you have NoScript, then that shouldn't be an issue unless the advertisements are served on a page you allow or temporarily allow to run scripts.
