Guys I have a strange Malware I cannot find. Makes "links" that are ads

I have something turning some random text to what looks like links. (blue text you can click on)
I know this is the "make fun of noobs and mess with people who need Help Board" but I thought I may get a legit response here.
I had a bad registry virus the other day, and took most of Thursday cleaning it out. Now I have this issue with link ads. Without mentioning products that got me banned. With them, I can't see the links though. But is there a way to find this malware and delete it, other than blocking it?
Its a slight nuisance.

it's called 'coupon drop down', but I can't find it.

look for the company, it should be under your extensions

I did have a Photzoom extension and a desk.com extension I deleted, but no "coupon drop down"
ETA-- it was one of those. The blue link ads are gone.
Thanks.
