This user script has been published on UserScripts.org for near one year, which is made to prohibit click-tracking and prevent redirection in the Google search results. I'm very surprised by so many downloads in UserScripts.org, about 6,805 times. I think many people really need this function provided by this script. So I have decided to update it since last update about three months ago.

What and Why

You can read this blog “Block Google from Click Tracking Web Search Results” for more information about "what is click-tracking and how it track user click event".

Sometimes click-tracking and URL redirection are very annoying, especially when Google is not well accessible for some reason. In this case, we need a method to remove this, so we can directly visit the original site URL rather than indirectly through Google.

Support and Feedback

Because of some technical reasons, the previous versions didn't support very well when Instant Search is on. And the Google search URLs were not listed completely in the @include metablock of UserScript. Now this script support both instant on and instant off search, and I added the missing URLs in the @include. You can add your favorite Google search URLs as you like.

I have change some information (like @namespace) in the metadata block of this script, so you'd better to re-install it (remove old one and then install the new). If you have any other questions or problems, contact me with the email listed in right-top of this page or just leave a comment in this post. I will reply as soon as possible.

Another thing I have to mention here is that I haven't test this script in Google Chrome, but I guess it will work well as expected. It will help me do better if someone could give me a test report in Chrome (Firefox also). As of version 0.8.3, this script support both chrome and firefox.
