On my browsers, links are created on random words within a text and when I hover over them a small ad window pops up, which is quite annoying.
I read here that this is called Intellitxt and that webmasters add them to pages intentionally and that to turn them off I can disable Javascript for those pages. But that's not a good idea for me as these Intellitxts appear almost on every page for me, including on stackoverflow.com and I might break other things by disabling Javascript.
It's hard to believe that someone thought that this would be a good feature to add to their website, moreover, my colleague doesn't get them on his computer on the same websites where I get them.
Does anyone know another way of how to get rid of these? Here's an example of one. When I hover over the word "open" this ad window pops up.
ps.: I'm using Windows 7 Professional, and my browsers are Google Chrome 22.0.1 and I.E. 9.
