My home email carrier is AT&T/Yahoo, which means that my email is the same as any 
Yahoo account.

My computer is a Hewitt Packard running vista, but this problem also happens on my 
older XP computer and at work, so I don't think that has anything to do with it.

Whenever I am writing an email, if I try to use a contraction, this odd little 
search bar opens up at the bottom of the screen as soon as I hit the apostrophe 
symbol and my computers start dinging with each keystroke as my cursor is now down 
in that search box instead of up in the body of my email.

This bar says: Quick Find (Links Only): then there is the search box where the 
apostrophe I typed is now appearing. I click back into my email and that search 
box/bar now disappears.

How do I get rid of this nasty little feature? Is there any way to turn it off? 
Sometimes, a person just wants to use a contraction, you know? It is mucho 
annoying. (I would have contracted it is, but it will not (cannot write the 
contraction for that either) let me use an apostrophe in my emails..
