Apparently it’s database got full or something. Until after a year and a half GlimmerBlocker decided to seize up and prevent me from editing WordPress sites.

If you are happy to get your hands a little dirty and want to make changes to an irritating feature of a web site you make use of, this is a tool that enables you to make things work the way you think they should.Ī useful, if slightly fiddly, means of blocking unwanted ads from Safari – effective but not perfect. use GlimmerBlocker control panel to block the baddies via internal proxy (works on all browsers) Of the three, GlimmerBlocker was the best and the simplest.

There is also scope for GlimmerBlocker to be used in other ways as it also gives you the ability to add your own custom CSS and JavaScript to pages. While other tools enable you to right click on an ad and choose to block all future ads from the same place, this is not something you are able to do with GlimmerBlocker. Many of the features you would expect to find in an ad-blocking tool are notable by their absence. This is not to say that the tool is perfect it is not an ideal solution. Other users can share the lists they have created so that other people can make use of them.īut even from initial installation you will find that the built in blocking filters all but eliminate online advertisements. GlimmerBlocker is only as effective as the rules and filters that you configure it to use and you may well find that it takes quite some time to set things up to your liking, Thankfully, there is an alternative option available to you. Follow the video to remove GlimmerBlocker, for more details about GlimmerBlocker uninstall, you could go and visit here. GlimmerBlocker is a little different as it is actually a proxy tool and this can be used to effectively prevent the appearance of ads in your browser.

Another issue is that when a new version of Safari is released you then have the additional problem of extensions that no longer work as they used to. I was almost at the point of switching browsers due to Safari freezing up and giving the beachball, until I thought to disable AdBlock, and, it was fast again. One of the problems with Safari is that the majority of ad blocking tools that are available are sub-standard affairs that can reduce performance and compromise security. I switched back to GlimmerBlocker after trying the AdBlock extension for Safari, as the extension DRAMATICALLY slows down Safaris overall performance.
