how do I get rid of text enhance spyware

For the last like, two days, text-enhance spyware has taken over both safari and firefox on my computer. It underlines weird words and shows a "text enhance" pop up when you hover over the word. Its so annoying, and I cant figure out how to get rid of it. Please help!

MacBook Pro, iOS 4.3.1

None of these suggestions solve the issue with the latest version of text-enchance... at least not for me. Its not coming in through any of the add-ins, extensions, etc. listed. Its coming in through Flash. I have not found a way to remove it, but you can disable it by disallowing thrid-party Flash content storage (see http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_man ager03.html). If any knows how to remove this garbage permanently, please reply.
