[pseudo-Solved]Web Page Content ties to BING

[MoonRise]

I've noticed that on any web page I'm on, if there is a word that is definable it is highlighted as a link to get more information. Great little feature sometimes, but here of late I've noticed it is tied to BING. Is this a FireFox thing I can change, or is it web page/host specific. If FireFox, how can I change that preference? I don't want anything BING if at all possible.

Hi moon, which pages are you looking at? And from what location? Haven't seen this from here (Switzerland)

Edit: which browser are you using?

KDE-LOOK.org is one such page. I'm using FireFox. Link is to one such area. The word is "wallpaper" in my description area.

"Description:
1024x768 Kubuntu themed Wallpaper. Enjoy!"

To see
Wallpaper
underlined (and active), I had to adjust my FX NoScript settings to allow (or temporarily allow) KDE-Look and Bing (or to allow the whole page). Otherwise, "Wallpaper" appeared and acted like an ordinary word.

First all, where is FX No Script setting? Second, I don't mind that they are active, I just don't like the fact they all seem tied to BING.

This explained a lot and it is tied to the web sites who use Vibrant Media. I evidently visit many sites that use them and they evidently use BING as their search engine. Unfortunate.

If you've installed NoScript, you'll see a NoScript symbol ("S") at lower right corner. Left-click it to see you allow/disallow options.
