Butler

Butler enhances Google search results by adding links to competitors. It also removes ads, changes typography, and a few other useful things.

IS IT SPYWARE?

No, Butler is not spyware. It does not track the pages you visit, display ads, hijack Amazon affiliate links, log keystrokes, steal passwords, set cookies, "phone home," or install any bundled software on your computer. It is simply a Firefox script that modifies a few Google services in ways that I find useful. If you don't like it, you can easily uninstall it.

HOW DO I UNINSTALL IT?

In the Tools menu, go to "Manage User Scripts," select Butler, and click Uninstall. Refresh the page and Butler will be gone. You do not need to reboot; you do not even need to relaunch Firefox.

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?

Nothing. Butler is Free Software, released under the GPL license.
