Hide / Remove Share buttons from Wowhead?

Is there any way I can hide the share buttons from Wowhead - I don't use Social Networking sites such as Facebook etc & Anytime I go anywhere near the vicinity of where they are on screen they pop up & I've shared something via Po.St or whatever it is.
It's really annoying. Is there anyway to hide these within Wowheads options, or am I looking at using a 3rd party pop-up blocker? I don't want to stop using Wowhead - It's great apart from this annoying (I presume new) additon, so if anyone can help please?

sounds like you got some adware or similar on your pc (toolbar or smth). wowhead doesnt have these. but i have seen what i think you mean, popups or overlays on pictures and videos and such.
only share buttons i see are at the top right, and its pretty hard to hit those by accident

Liking Wowhead pages on Facebook has been around forever, and Share features for other sites have been around for many months now. We actually modified the Share tool this past week so if you mouseover the Share button by accident, the menu with Share options won't stay open permanently--it closes as soon as you move your mouse away.

If you use Firefox (probably similar for Chrome) you can add the following line to your
userContent.css
:
.header-share-button { display:none }

Perc, thanks for that fix. That was something that had been bugging me for awhile.

Could understand if I kept hovering directly over them but my mouse cursor was like 3 or 4 inches away or so on whatever was below them, hence the inadvertent clicking of the sudden pop-up. Anyway sorted now thanks to Nulgar's solution. Thank you very much for that. Much appreciated.
