1151927 2010-11-11 03:22:00 if you click on the txt in below the link, by accident,which I tend to do when reading the txt below the link, it will then come up for every search link you hover the mouse across.

Was so much better, the old google .

The porno/pirate sites are going to love this, images to their sites will auto load up just so much easier for those now not REALLY carefull with the mouse ( young kids perhaps)

google search preferences gives no option to disable it (that I can see)

EDit: same PC:mozilla has it, IE7 doesnt (yet ??)

1151929 2010-11-11 04:02:00 Well don't click in the text then, that is what the link is for. Safari (3993)
1151930 2010-11-11 04:19:00 I found this remedy to turn it off and restore the "old" Google, it seems to work:

www.google.com

Edit: for Firefox
