I assume perhaps what you're referring to is when you run your cursor down a forum page, over the thread titles, a box appears that shows a "snippet" of what's in the post? I don't know if there is a way to turn that off or not. I presume perhaps not? What I do is just to keep my cursor over on the right-hand side of the page as I scroll down using the little wheel on my mouse to scroll down. (I access PC using an old laptop computer.) Then all the little boxes don't come up (at least for me.) Sorry if I'm off track on this...
