Disable Lync Click to Call detecting numbers in a web page

Question

Is there a way to stop Microsoft Lync from detecting phone numbers in a web page, and adding its click to call icon to that phone number in Internet Explorer?

Answer 1

I was unable to get Option 2 to work. I think this is because the add-on is triggered after the page is loaded. So that got me to thinking... If I trigger this after 5 seconds of the page loading, then hide the elements. This theory proved successfull, but it hid the phone number too.

I took it a step further and rebuilt the element for the Lync Click to Call class after stripping out the phone number. My steps may be crude, but effective.

    var ie = (document.all) ? true : false;

    function hideClass(objClass){
     //  This function will hide Elements by object Class
     //  Works with IE and Mozilla based browsers

    var elements = (ie) ? document.all : document.getElementsByTagName('*');
       for (i=0; i"
         }
       }
     }
     function getPhone(thisStr){
        newStr = "";
        for (n=0; n
