PLEASE READ! 2009.12.09 updates...
Google's search result pages are in a state of flux. There are at least two different versions being served to users. I have updated the script to work with the two versions I've been able to trigger.
Google's AJAX-powered search results page wraps a gateway (i.e. tracking) URL around the links to individual results. An annoying side effect of this change is that you can't copy and paste links directly out of search results. This userscript fixes that problem. For reference:
