Info Shows Up Under Cursor

When scrolling through a page (particularly in Safari), a grey box appears under or near the cursor. Sometimes the info inside the box duplicates a link nearby, at other times it has some other information in it. It is annoying in that it covers up the text under it. What is this, and how do I turn it off?


Here's a screenshot:

I guess that it could be Hover Text, but that is turned off on my Settings > Accessibility.


When this "feature" gets too annoying, I restart, and that seems to make it go away for awhile. I just thought that there is some other setting that I am missing.
