Need easy but URGENT HELP! also Reason v.3 help

It seems my automatic update tool download a gdi ( if i remember its name correctly) detection tool.
And now it highlights some words in green and allows me to go on a very bad useless site.
(link removed by moderator - not necessary to the fix. PR)

I am extremely mad and angered, since i just reformatted my pc because of it.
I really need a way to get rid of it.

Try running a spyware scan with Spybot, Adaware, and MS Antispyware if you have it. I don't think its the GDI Detection Tool. I just downloaded it too and I have no problems with it. It sounds like you downloaded something and caught some other form of spyware. I could be wrong though.

And as for the no-cd cracks, If I remember correctly, I don't think discussion of those sorts of things is allowed on the PCMech forums.

You can always system restore to a point before you installed it to see if that works.

It's Intellitxt - which is nothing on your computer. It's part of the websites you are visiting and you cannot get rid of it, only use some kind of adblocking software or blackholing the ad sites in your hosts file.
