I never understood the usefulness of the preview feature. The only time I find it marginally interesting is when a website is currently down or had recently been taken offline. Though, I find the "cache:" query more useful in those cases anyway.
The preview window does pop-up unexpectedly for me as well. I guess my mouse pointer wanders over to the right side of the search result every once in a while, triggering the preview.
