Hi Boris,

I could not find the click handlers cuz the entire javascript on gmail
page is obfuscated and its impossible to figure out whats going on. I
thought of using the venkman debugger but could not find the exact
function that was called each time we click somethin on the page.

One question, can we disaptchEvents on text nodes?

Thanks,
Amit
