You've accidentally invoked "SmartFind and Paint." On the Edit menu, pick SmarFind and Paint/Deselect.

It looks like restarting Finale clears SmartFind and Paint, which you probably discovered since you haven't been back here. Restarting Finale is always the first thing you should try if there's a problem. If that doesn't work, reboot the computer.
