How to remove i£ij at the bottom left corner under my abstract

Question

I have an i£ij at the bottom left corner under my abstract. I don't know why. How do I get rid of it? Using TeXworks. Actually there is an umlaut over the first i.

I use pdfLaTeX to compile.

Here is a MWEB:

\documentclass[12pt, letterpaper]{article}

\usepackage{lmodern} % To make section headings italicized

\usepackage{abstract}

\title{Title} \author{}

\begin{document}

\maketitle

\begin{abstract}

\end{abstract}

\end{document}

Answer 1

I deleted the lmodern package, the i£ij went away, and I don't seem to need lmodern anymore to italicize subsections. I had updated my whole Tex package a week ago so maybe my new version doesn't need lmodern to italicize subsection headings. I think I'm good now. I guess the moral of the story is, always to a MWEB before posting a question on the stackexchange.
