I downloaded Adblock Safari for a Mac computer and I have no clue how to open it. I opened Safari and went to Preferences and there still wasn't an AdBlock
Icon. Do I need to restart my computer?

Safari sucks. Use Firefox.

I didn't even know Safari had adblock! I must look into this. I prefer Safari, too.

I don't like Firefox either. I've been putting up with the ads/videos cause I don't want to switch over to Firefox.

- Download AdBlock for Safari
- Quit Safari - Restart - Go to Preferences in Safari - Click AdBlock - Add those sites in the big thread Viola! P.S. I love Safari. Especially using the touch pad with it. |

When I got my Mac, I used Safari for like an hour before I gave in and downloaded Firefox.

I have Firefox and Safari installed on my Mac, but I just prefer Safari. I'm used to it and there are just little things I like about it better.

I used to love Safari but I made the switch to Firefox when the ads started here because AdBlock didn't exist for Safari then.
I don't think I can go back now. |

I installed it, but it's not in preferences, I guess it didn't work.
