Whenever I'm trying to read anything especially when scrolling every time the mouse hovers over anything a yellow box pops up with a source description that I do not need or want. It's extremely annoying.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

You can look at Adblock Plus to hide IntelliTXT type pop-ups.

You need to subscribe to a Filter list (e.g. the EasyList).
