Flash Builder - Disable highlighting of all instances of a word in code editor?

In Flash Builder, for objects, properties, variables and such where your cursor is on it, the editor highlights all instances of that name in the code with a grey box. This can be very distracting and I was wondering if there was a way to turn it off or if there is a hot key to disable it.

Another things that is very distracting are the mouse hover popups, although apparently there's no way to disable those :

I have been annoyed by this as well, and finally found something that helps. You need to turn off "Mark Occurrences" by clicking the button in the IDE that looks like a highlighter.

Here is a link to where I found that answer:
