What is Glimmerblocker?
The issue with other ad blockers for Safari is that they are implemented as terrible hacks: as input managers and/or ApplicationEnhancer. This compromises Safari's stability and often causes problems when Apple releases new versions of Safari. When Safari runs in 64-bit mode, Snow Leopard does not support InputManager-based blockers. GlimmerBlocker is implemented as an HTTP proxy, so Safari's stability isn't compromised because it doesn't use any hacks. It's even compatible with all other browsers that use HTTP and other native Mac OS X applications, such as Netnewswire.
