Something not configured right on your end. Were you using a proxy prior to installing GlimmerBlocker? Also just to see, open System Preferences -> GlimmerBlocker, select the Setup tab and uncheck "Activate GlimmerBlocker" and see if that resolves the problem. If it does then you have a misconfiguration in your network settings somewhere.

Safari AdBlock is an Input Manager hack. Input Managers were deprecated in 10.5 and are officially unsupported in 10.6. There are workarounds but... if you need a workaround then it isn't really superior or fantastic, no? GlimmerBlocker works with any browser, not just Safari. I can have my same filter rules for Safari, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, whatever, and the WebDAV publishing makes it easy to have my rules wherever I want them. Because it is a stand alone proxy and not tied to any browser it won't break when something changes underneath as with AdBlock on Snow Leopard. |
