private void linkLabel1_MouseEnter(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
linkLabel1.LinkColor = Color.Green;
}
private void linkLabel1_MouseLeave(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
linkLabel1.LinkColor = Color.Red;
}

As for the box, it seems all you need is a tooltip. If you are not familiar with tooltips, all you need to do is drag a single tooltip control over your form. This will add a new property to your linklabels, in which you can specify the tooltip text.
For the hovering, the simplest way to achieve this is to create your custom control, which requires only a few lines of code:
public class HoverLink : LinkLabel {private Color hoverColor;
private Color oldColor; public HoverLink () : base () {
hoverColor = LinkColor;
}
[Browsable(
true)][Category ("Appearance")]
public Color HoverColor {
get { return hoverColor; }
set { hoverColor = value; }
}
protected override void OnMouseEnter (System.EventArgs e) {
oldColor = LinkColor;
LinkColor = HoverColor;
base.OnMouseEnter (e);
} protected override void OnMouseLeave (System.EventArgs e) {
LinkColor = oldColor;
base.OnMouseLeave (e);
}
}
Once you enter these lines in your project, you will find in your toolbox a new control named "HoverLink". In this you will find the HoverColor property, which will allow you to set the color to use when the mouse hovers over the control. It is otherwise a simple LinkLabel.
