I was getting rather frustrated with Google auto predict. It's in general a bit buggy. Usually I type something in and hit enter out of default. Before I hit enter it displays the correct results, so after realizing I need to hit enter (again) it gives me those same results. Buggy.

I used adblock to block this segment:

http://www.google.com/extern_js/*

Hope it helps somebody that isn't Good with Adblock but who was also very annoyed with it.

Very nice information! I haven't tried it yet, but I know that this will very useful in near future. Thank you!

So adblock could turn off specific javascript codes/functions? Or does it only disable all javascript from selected sites?

It's actually made to block ads before it attempts to display them, so you won't load extra stuff. So when you install it usually allows you to pick a premade block list which blocks a ton of stuff like ads you'd see on sites and things of that nature.

You can add a filter to block all js on a site:

*example.com*.js

This would do the trick, although they claim adding a ton of wildcards will slow it down. So if they don't switch from http to https then I'd probably hard code that in.
