Hi Everyone,

Thanks for giving my script a shot. Some people are reporting that the script does make the unnecessary labels disappear at first, but then when GMail refreshes (when you receive a new mail, for instance) the labels reappear. Unfortunately, it works fine for me, which makes it a little hard to figure out why it doesn't work for everybody. I'm trying to organize the bug reports a little, so if the script doesn't work at all for you, please post about it here.

Please note that keeping the labels gone on a refresh relies on a DOM event that only became available in Firefox 3.0, so if you are using a version earlier than Firefox 3.0, there's not too much I can do except recommend that you upgrade if you are able to.
