Remove words underlined in blue

If you’re seeing that certain words are underlined in blue (or double underlined in blue) when surfing your favorite web pages, and a window or pop-up with an advertisement in it is displayed when your mouse passes over it, it means that your browser (Chrome, Firefox or Internet Explorer) is- without a doubt- infected by an adware or spyware program.

Even if it’s not really a virus, the plug-in or service that displays words underlined in blue on your browser is useless except for earning money for its designers. This adware is usually brimming with resources and will slow down the web pages you visit. Plus, the links displayed in the pop-ups are not necessarily very safe. That’s why we strongly recommend removing this adware program and its blue-underlined-words function. Below, you’ll find out how to do it.
