CustomizeGoogle

Enhance Google search results and remove ads and spam

Description

Basically CustomizeGoogle adds links to other search engines and services like social bookmarking websites, removes ads, lets you "scroll infinitely", be more secure with https://, and other things that make Google products and services better.

I can't guarantee that it works on anything but Windows XP or Linux 32bit, but since CustomizeGoogle works everywhere on Firefox, it should be the same with Songbird.

This was a Firefox extension I ported because of the Top 40. Go stevel!

Any ideas on how this extension could be better for Songbird users? Give me any thoughts on integrating Google services and music in the comments!

Note : Enabling both 'Google Suggest' and 'Query Suggestions' at the same time is not needed. That should however not make any difference to the user experience.
Note : If you don't want suggestions at all and disable 'Query Suggestions' at google.com/preferences or in 'Sticky Preferences'. Then don't forget to disable the 'Google Suggest' option in CustomizeGoogle.
