Seriously, I don't give a rat's ass about Google+ pages when I do a Google search and I sure as hell don't want it taking up half of my monitor space. doh!

I can't seem to find a user script or Firefox add-on to get rid of it either. Anyone had any luck?

It might if I knew what to block for that specific thing.

My search criteria is 'fringe'.

Here is the screenshot.

I'm talking about the section to the right of the normal search results.

Also, OT: Could someone recommend a free image hosting site I could switch to? I'm getting tired of Photobucket.

Does the Greasemonkey "Hide Google Instant Preview Button" you recommended me in this thread not work?

I don't have Greasemonkey installed at home, just at work. So I can't test it out at the moment.

Whats wrong with PhotoBucket?  Don't use IMAGESHACK cause I wont even click on theirs.


Here is my Screenshot using ADBLOCK PRO for IE8:



Once Installed, right click it, Select Element to Hide, mouse over it, click....say good bye.


BTW..Photobucket screenshot right there.

First of all, I would never use IE. The thought of having to go back to IE is scary in fact. worried

Back on topic, I've already got ABP for Firefox and there is no option for Select Element to Hide. I think you may be talking about an additional addon that goes along with ABP, I just can't remember what it's called. If you could let me know what it's called that would rock.

Also, apparently when Photobucket changed their website layout the uploading options got changed and my account was limiting the size of my screenshots. Now that I have that fixed it should be great. grin

those are the blockable elements on the side thingy there, according to adblock plus. you could do a test and block everything from googleusercontent.com and see what happens.
