Whenever I hover over a picture the text always shows up as "press Shift + R to improve picture quality, press Shift + A to improve all pictures quality" How do I stop this from happening?

Every image I hover over, this includes all maps, but most annoyingly XKCD, stupid hover text pops up telling me how to improve the image quality I would like to get rid of this somehow.

A possible cause is that your ISP sends images compressed to speed up the transfer and adds a JavaScript to each page to make it possible to see images in the original quality.

If you want to see the original image quality all the time then you need to contact your ISP and ask what to do to opt-out of that service or see if there is a FAQ about it on the web page of your ISP.
