    Just did this myself! If I am not wrong they changed the place to modify the instant setting....

    Google’s Instant Previews launched last week, and not long after some people began searching for ways to turn off the feature since Google doesn’t provide one (even if Instant is turned off).

    Yesterday, a solution became available for Firefox or Chrome users who find the previews annoying. ArpitNext offers a script that will add an option to hide Google Instant Previews.

    The previews are also annoying for site owners, as they trigger AdSense impressions.

    Thanks a lot for all your replies. I too found the fact that Google took the option to turn off google instant out of the main page annoying. It was as if this feature was being forced on people.

    Monosodium, I did not know about the effect of google instant on adsense. I hope thy are going to fix it.

    Stevenyoung, thanks for mentioning the presence of these extensions as well as the script. I did not know that the preview of the pages could be turned off like that.
