How to turn it off

I’ve only done this using Firefox. Seen here, and rewritten it to save people digging for it:

  • Install AdBlock Plus
  • Install the Element Hiding Helper
  • Open “AdBlock Plus – preferences” and add these filters:
    • google.com##.vspi
    • google.com##.vspib
    • google.com###vspb
  • Restart Firefox
  • Feel gratitude to the developers of Adblock Plus.

Hey Google! You can try again for “don’t be evil” after you master “Don’t be a nuisance.”
