Browser turns common words on a website page into url links to ad pages and adds mouse-over pop-up windows to the words.

hello LeeW, this sounds like a problem caused by adware on your pc. first of all please update Firefox to the latest version, you're using an outdated version which is affected by quite a few known security vulnerabilities.

then go to firefox/tools > addons > extensions & remove any suspicious entries (toolbars, things that you have not installed intentionally, don't know what purpose they serve, etc). also go to the windows control panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there and run a full scan of your system with the security software that you have in place and different other tools like the free version of malwarebytes & adwcleaner.
