What to remove "Tex Enhance" stuff

The last number of days I have this mesage comming up in a square box and say that you must enter some competition. This comes up when you read text and some of the very commom words are in red and you move the curser over them.
How can I get rid of it?

I have never heard of "Tex Exhance". Sound like malware to some type.

I would use System Restore to a date prior to the beginning of this problem. And I'd probably run a full scan of Malwarebytes.

Your statement "when you read text...", what type of program are you using; i.e., word processing, email, web site, etc?

Thanks, I will run System Restore to prior date if I do not get it fixed. Sorry for my spelling but it must read "Text Enhance"

I get the message on websites like Flickr and Camera club and the message in the that pops up is something like "Win a new iPod 3" or "Answer the question and claim an iPod2 now"

It pops up if the mouse curser is over words like "member,help,date,again" etc.

Hi ignatzatsonic

I downloaded Mulwarebutes, ran it and removed the 51 items it suggested. That fixed my problem. Many thanks.
