// ==UserScript==
// @name           Google Search Link Copier
// @namespace      tgr
// @description    A simple script to clean urls of the result links on the Google Search page
//                 An onmousedown event handler changes those urls to point to www.google.*/url?... to count clicks
//                 which can be extremely annoying because it messes up right-click "copy link location" functionality. This is based on http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/9482, but allows google web history. 
//                 This script installs a second event handler which instantly restores the original url
// @include        http://www.google.co*/search?*
// ==/UserScript==
