Can you attach a screenshot?
Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot and make sure that you do not exceed the maximum file size (1 MB).
Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
- Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs.
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

Firefox doesn't do Wikipedia underlining, so it must be an addon. The real question is, what addon is doing the underlining. Disabling an addon is easy if you know which one to disable.
Yes the issue goes away in safe mode. And I do not have any malware problems that I'm aware of.
I am going to disable my add-ons one at a time, restart Firefox and see if I can track the culprit down that way.
