I dont know if these are what are called hot links. the problem is I move my mouse ll over pages while reading/looking at trhem and I can not stand having the BS mini-popups. I know they can be disabled in IE8. Is there any way to turn this off in Firefox?

You already have Adblock Plus and that extension should stop such a IntelliTXT type pop-ups.

To which ABP filter(s) did you subscribe?
