Google Link Fixer: Stop URL Changing & Speed Up Page Load

The 'Google Link Fixer' is a unique Chrome extension designed to safeguard the authenticity of your search result URLs. Users will notice that upon clicking on a search result, the link doesn't change as Google typically alters it. This extension stops this from happening, thus preserving the original URL. Furthermore, the extension prevents Google from tracking user clicks. An added benefit is the accelerated page load time as there is one less redirect from Google. The extension is functional across all Google sites.

Працює чудово. Довго шукав подібний аддон, ледь знайшов. На ФайрФокс такий аддон знайти легко, а з оперою треба поритись.
