Block ads in Safari

Firefox users have a wide choice of extensions to block ads and pop-ups on their browser. Safari users don't have such a wide selection, but Safari AdBlock makes for a decent choice.

Safari AdBlock is an easy-to-install plug-in which gives you a choice between general and advanced options. No configuration is necessary and it's ready to go as soon as you install it.If you do want to configure the advanced options, you don't have to mess about with System Preferences as Safari AdBlock has a handy toolbar button which configures everything.

There's not much to complain about with Safari AdBlock, although it doesn't show you which sites have been blocked which may be an issue for some users.

    Ads are alive and well…. I installed Safari AdBlock 0.4.0 RC3. Aside from the new pane in my Safari preferences, there seems to have been no change. When I visit websites, they continue to show ads in their full glory. Restarting Safari does nothing. It's a shame, I was looking forward to using this. Pros: Nicely integrated preference pane Cons: Doesn't work.
