For every site we develop and use ShareThis module first thing clients request is to disable on-hover action.

We go in and adjust the module everytime but if there is intrest we can provide a patch to add option to backend.

To fix in latest version for 7.x-2.5:

1. Open sharethis.module
2. Go to line 469
3. change 'publisher' => $data_options['publisherID'], to 'publisher' => $data_options['publisherID'],onhover => 'false',

Upload and test. Let me know if anybody else has need for this and we will create a patch.

Thanks

Thanks. I get exactly the same reaction. Can this be made permanent or at least configurable?
