Address bubble pop up when I hover over a link, how can I get rid?

Like the logo of Microsoft Answers, if I hover the mouse over the logo, a pop-up is displayed "' address: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us". "

How can I stop this annoying appearing on each link? It started only happening in the last week or two, but I don't remember to make changes. Any help on this would be highly appreciated.

p.s. It also happens with any shortcut, showing the location of the file.

Thanks in advance,

Big D.

    I had the same problem - downloaded a free program and the next thing I knew, Yahoo had taken over my Firefox search bar. A solution that works for me (Windows 7, 64-bit) is to do the following:

    Go to computer C: drive > Program Files (x 86) > Mozilla Firefox > searchplugins.

    In the searchplugins folder, just delete the file "yahoo." Restart Firefox and voila! no more Yahoo!

  • I get a javascript:void (0); When I'm on some sites, how can I get rid of him?

    When I am on a shopping site and I try to add something to my wish list or bag I have the javascript:void (0); in the lower left corner of the screen and nothing happens. It is not to add to my bag or list. I tried many things to fix it, but nothing worked, and this only started happening in the last month.

    JavaScript: void (0); is used as a placeholder URL to indicate that an onclick event is bound to the link to the real action.

    If JavaScript is blocked for some reason any then this javascript: void (0); link is in sight.

    You can try the following steps in case of problems with web pages:

    You can reload webpages and ignore the cache to refresh potentially stale or corrupt.

    • Hold down the SHIFT key and click the Reload button
    • Press 'Ctrl + F5' or 'Ctrl + Shift + R' (Windows, Linux)
    • Press 'Command + shift + R' (Mac)

    Clear the cache and cookies only from Web sites that are causing problems.

    "Clear the Cache":

    • Firefox/tools > Options > advanced > network > content caching Web: 'clear now '.

    'Delete Cookies' sites causing problems:

    • Firefox/tools > Options > privacy > Cookies: "show the Cookies".

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance).

  • I uninstalled incredimail but it still keeps popping up. It's a pain. How can I get rid of him forever?

    It has been removed from my control panel and the list of program files. He is always on my c drive and cannot be deleted. When I type incredimail in search of start - he is still listed in the programs. When I touch it keeps reinstalling itself. I then remove TI-OBVIOUSLY not building. I really can not stand. It is necessary to reformat the c drive OR can it be deleted?

    How to uninstall Incredimail:
    Note: the tutorial mentions Add and Remove. If you use Vista, replace with the programs and features. The rest works the same in the two operating systems.

    http://www.ehow.com/how_4809861_uninstall-IncrediMail.html

    Excerpt:
    One of the problems associated with Incredimail is that when it is uninstalled it is not completely removed.  This can create problems during subsequent starts.  It is necessary to manually delete Incredimail data in the user profile, the programs directory and the registry.

  • I don't see the overview of URL that you get when you hover over a link. Why?

    Until today, when I flew over my cursor a link, a preview of the URL of the link appears at the bottom left of my screen, above the Start button (I use Windows Vista). Currently when I hover over a link, no preview appears, so I do not know the web address where I'm going when I click on the link. I thought that maybe this was due to the update to Firefox 19.0, but my friends who have also updated say they can still see the URL preview. Did somehow turn off the preview of the URL by chance? If so, how can I turn it back on? If this is not the case, why is it gone?

    I still see the URL previews! I don't know exactly why; He could have just a weird blip on my end. Thanks for your help!

  • the ToolTip that fleet upward when you hover over a link with a mouse works erratically if said the link is in the lower left corner of web page

    So the title says pretty much everything that, but I would stay again.

    There is a small balloon that floats to the top in the lower left corner of the browser window when you hover over a link on a page with a mouse. The address of the link leads, indicates in the ToolTip.
    However, if the link in question is in the lower left corner of the Web page, the ToolTip floats high above right. Then he disappears to reappear a few milliseconds later. This blinking persists; You can neither do address or click on the link. By pressing several times shows RMB RMB menu for the link, which finally allows you to copy the link location and paste it into the address bar.

    Try disabling the Redirect Remover extension if you have. Disabling this extension worked for me which allows the address bar that appears at the bottom left when you move to a link to the right in certain situations.

    (1) if it works well before?

    (2) remember to make changes?

    (3) what version of Windows you are running on the computer?

    How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7

    If everything works well after a clean boot, you can deduce that some third-party services are at the origin of the problem.

    Continue with the remaining steps to pin-point on the third party service.

  • How can I get rid of "your free trial period is over" when you try to open the pdf in the screen reader

    Hello

    How can I get rid of the "your free trial period has finished" screen when you try to open a pdf file in Adobe Reader?

    I got a trial of Dreamweaver, but it was too complicated for me.

    It was not the case for cancell the free track so I let it run its course and expires.  He then deleted programs that is very well (I didn't buy), but he has also deleted my Acrobat Reader.

    I have re-installed that but when I try to open a pdf file, all I get is the screen "your free trial period is over," which only allows you to buy or out and out all together.

    Needless to say that I am very UNIPRESEED with Adobe to spoil my programs and now they want to charge me $ 29 for a problem that they have created.

    Can someone help me with this very annoying problem?

    Concerning

    David

    If this is the free software Adobe reader, then it will not be a free trial that are associated with message.  Maybe what you have installed is not the drive.

  • How can I get rid of firefox update firefox 35.0.1 software pop up?

    Firefox worked fine for me until recently.

    When I started getting the "software update" Pop ups for Firefox 35.0.1.

    I DIDN'T WANT TO UPDATE so just clicked the X and thought that it would be mind is no more, but it is CONSTANTLY upward, something that never happened in 7 years of use of firefox.

    He also ruined YOUTUBE for me now I hang constant whenever I change one youtube video to another, it crashes and means that I have to close firefox and restart which is a total pain.

    I finally gave in and updated Firefox 35 but I always had the problem of the hang that was never there before, so I deleted Firefox 35 and returned to Firefox 34.0.5 although I still hit on Youtube videos.

    How can I get rid of the "Firefox pop-up boxes?"

    How can I resolve the deadlock on youtube vids?

    As I said before that the 'blocking' has started since the time of the pop-up boxes.

    Thanks in advance.

    He seemed to have solved the problem.

    I've just updated my Flash Player to the latest version and Youtube is now working well once again, no more crashes when I go from a Youtube video to the other.

    Just to add, the reason for which that I don't update before was like many others I had many problems with Flash in the past has kept the version that worked well for me.

    I still feel the arised only problem because of the 35 Firefox constant POP UPS that started this problem in the first place and I'm sure that many others will find the same problem in the next few weeks, so I hope that my solution will be of other assistance also.

  • How can I get rid two tabs to open when I first open Firefox?

    When I first open Firefox I get my home page in a tab, but also another tab opens. This one is set to Facebook. How can I get rid of the opening automatically second tab?

    You get two pages if you launch a new window using either:

    • CTRL + n
    • button '3-bar' menu > new window

    If Yes:

    Check the settings of your home page to see if you have several home tabs. A vertical bar (|) is used between the addresses. This article shows you where to check them in the Options dialog box: start-up, homepage, tabs and download settings. This article has more background on several tabs home: How to set the home page.

    If not, or if the Options dialog box is correct:

    Add-ons - can display tabs at startup or in a new window. If you check the address of the Facebook page, this is the URL to normal Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/) or to a different address?

    Do you have any extensions related to Facebook? You can view, disable and often remove the extensions on page modules. Either:

    • CTRL + SHIFT + a
    • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

    In the left column, click Extensions. Then, when in doubt, turn off.

    Often, a link will appear above at least an extension disabled to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links in the last step.

    Any improvement?

  • How can I get rid of ZoneAlarm engine of search in the address bar and of the way page search box?

    I downloaded ZoneAlarm firewall. There you install Chrome and choose its search engine when you download. I had heard that it was removed easily later. I have reset Google in the search bar upper at right.
    Now Firefox starts OK, but every time I will use a tab to open another search ZoneAlarm window is in the address bar and in the area of research of the Center, and Google search is in the top right search bar. How can I get rid of all ZoneAlarm search everywhere?

    I have the latest version of Firefox and Windows 8.1.

    You can check if you have the search engine of ZoneAlarm file in the browser\searchplugins folder in the Firefox program or in the searchplugins folder in the Firefox profile folder.

    You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder currently in use:

    • Help > troubleshooting information > profile directory: see file (Linux: open the directory;) Mac: View in the Finder)

    You can delete the search.json file and the possible search - metadata.json and the search.sqlite files in the profile folder of Firefox to reset the default search engines.

    Firefox will rebuild the file search.json from the default search engines in the "browser\searchplugins" folder in the program of Firefox and the searchplugins folder in the Firefox profile folder.

  • How can I get rid of the surf canyon Add ons when there is no option "delete"? I have it turned off, but it still appears on my desktop.

    I get a window of surf canyon to appear on my desktop. I checked in my control panel and features program and it does not appear there. I checked in firefox, tools, add ons and, it seems, but it is disabled. There is no option to "remove" as there is for other add ons. And, even if it presents as being disabled, the window keeps popping up. How can I get rid of this?

    According to a screen shot I've seen online, when you are in the Control Panel, uninstall a program, you are looking for is called Fast Search. It might be easier to click on the column heading "installed on" to bring the most recent infections, I mean additions, upward. I hope that here uninstallation will remove the Firefox and IE as well.
