For the first time ever the "edit" pop-up is appearing. How do I get rid of it?

As I type an email, a small window appears right under the line I'm typing. 

"Go to link: - Change - Remove"

When I click on either, I get a window called "Edit Link" Copied and pasted below:


Loading ****@gmail.com… Loading standard view | Load basic HTML (for slow connections)

This is taking longer than usual. Try reloading the page. If that doesn't work, you can: 

  1. Disable Labs and try again.
  2. If you're on a slow connection, try basic HTML view.
  3. For more troubleshooting tips, visit the help center.
