Instant Preview on Google Search is the feature that allows you to view a preview of a website shown in search results without actually going to the website (see screenshot above).

While it is not known if this is a permanent or temporary change to Google Search, it appears that Google has disabled the Instant Preview feature on Google.com and related international domains.

The instant preview is just a bit malware lurking by Blackhat SEO technique and removing does not affect advance algorithms searches.

No more visiting Cached sites then ?

If you have the malware in cached version, then the malware are too (quickly ..) in your Windows .. ..

So pitty, that this nice Instant Preview feature is disabled for now, we are less and less secure with Google search ..

Instant Preview - come back, please!
 
Littlebits, don't search for cached version of page (with malware maybe ..), but for thumbnail of your link rather ..


Look on search engines that present the links with thumbnails, eg.:


Exalead.com search engine - the results with thumbnails: http://www.exalead.com/search/

Javoco search engine: http://search.jawoco.com/

LYCOS: http://www.lycos.com/


If no thumbnail - this could be the suspicious link ..
 
The only that Google left to be guide against malicious intact is there safe browsimg however may depends if it actually catch from most questionable sites.
 
Google is just experimenting, see the Source for updated information.
 
So what awaits Google developers .. why don't stop this 'experiment' (of disable the Instant Preview) .. maybe Google has friends among malware authors? .. or it gives him more clicks of infected people ..:huh:
