User reviews

OK, my problem actually resides in Linkredirector, I dont want it, but I need it for this extension. In Google images when I hover over an image, the cursor is different, and when I click it takes me to the full size image, I DONT WANT THAT, I want the normal google image view. PLEASE fix this. I would actually use this extension if it wasnt for this annoying behavior. That is besides the incomprehensible settings it has, would sure be helpful if u provided what every setting does.
