it is turned on because if i turn it off it doesnt trim the contour and looks just as bad ... how to have it still trim the contour without the white box?!
You cannot trim a contour, only hide it under another object. You should be able to change the colour of the label mask however to something that's easier to look at.

If I remember correctly the background color of the label comes from your current screen background at the time the style was created or changed. I believe that this issue comes from importing a style from a drawing where the background color was different than your current one - don't quote me on this, I might be entirely wrong.
Try changing the modelspace background color then change it back and see if that has any effect.
