Question
I am looking for a way to disable the text of similar values being highlighted when you click/edit a variable, i.e. I click enemyValue
and type something next to it and it automatically highlights all the text. I have searched and cannot find anything.
Solution
Uncheck "Automatically highlight references to symbol under cursor" on the Advanced | Refactoring
page of the Visual Assist X Options dialog.
Pressing ESC temporarily removes the highlights.
OTHER TIPS
In your Visual Studio look for "VAssistX" menu tab it's just next with "View" then click "Visual Assist X Options" then expand if not yet expanded the "Advance" TreeView then select "Display" and uncheck the "Highlight find results".
Hope this will help.

In particular be aware that "VAX Find Reference" colours are defined at Tools | Options | Environment | Fonts and Colors. Scroll to "VA X ..." in the list box labeled "Display items".
Also pressing Esc disables some of the colouring.
