Working well after the Aug 17 update, hides the preview window and the button completely.

Google changed layouts again mid-September, and now "Cached" and "Similar" links got pushed into the preview window.

Please add this into the css string to return them to their proper location:

.vshid {display:inline; margin-left:7px;}

This script is perfect. Removes instant preview, removes the spyglass link, cleans up the look of the link... it's awesome.

Google is pleasant to use again. Thank you.

This removes preview and the magnifying glass and result selecting and keeps it as simple as it used to be, text results that you can navigate + click without any monstrous images popping up (what use is a photo of an entire web page shrunk into a minatuer image anyway?)

I'd been hoping someone would write a script to get rid of this pesky feature, and here it is.

Google should at the very least only show the preview if you click the magnifying glass, not if you click near or around the search result. The best they could do, is add an option to turn previews off. Anyway, thanks for a great script!

I hate Instant preview. Google is experimenting worthless things.

This works well and removes Instant previews perfectly. thanks

While being an excellent script, it hasn't been updated in a while and has fallen prey to Google updates. So, it no longer works. Fear not, the fix is quite simple - update it yourself.

I'll even provide the code:
var css = ".vspib, .vspii,vspiic, .vspi {display: none !important;} #vsi, #vsic, #vsrs, #botstuff, #vspb {display: none !important;}";

Save and enjoy.

Just wanted to say thanks. This should hopefully make using Google search tolerable again. =:/
