Google Instant search

Google Instant Search is the worst feature ever!!!. I could not for the life of me find a PERMANENT way to turn it off. Every time I turned it off using different means, it always came back. This is the only link I found useful so far, but the suggestion is not that great. It's OK.

It is so annoying and so intrusive, every time I type a character it interrupts me and then I end up because of the time lag with a different string in the search box than the one I intended to type. Are they hiring a whole new set of STUPID generation at Google. This does not take a rocket scientist to figure out that this feature is useless. Even if they believe that is has some usefulness, let me (the customer, the user) decide.


Anyone knows how to turn this stupid feature off?
