No add ons are installed. Websites just have empty spaces of white, one I frequent has no ads whatsoever but I know it is meant to.

yeah but can't you see that the page'S content is flipped vertically and horizontally?
I'm not joking I can even record a video of this weird phenomenon
If you are talking about jerky youtube videos just use clicktoflash and you can watch youtube in h.264 rather than flash. Also, Adblock is pretty well integrated into safari now and works very well. Here is a screenshot of the toolbar in the top right when you add it.

Sambo, do you have flash disabled? If not, you are sitting behind your work's proxy server which filters everything. Safari simply does not block adverts by default, stop trying to be such a smart arse.
@brop its not youtube but thank you for that suggestion I will give it a shot. That adblock for Safari is Leopard only I think, but I do use Safariblock which works well.

I have been using Safari 4.0 on all four of my Macs (Intels, only a year or so old) since Monday and it is slower opening all sites. Much slower than the previous edition. Any comments?
Also is there now no way to CLEAR your Google searches WITHOUT clearing you entire HISTORY? They used to be independent of each other.
1. Safari Menu
2. Preferences
3. Autofill tab
4. Edit Other Forms
5. Google.com
6. Remove
7. Done
That's the same way it was for the actual google search box when you are using google.com.
Safari 4 on the mac is awesome,
Safari is almost as full featured as firefox and now has a good number of addons, i can now drop firefox and switch back to safari.
Safari renders and runs so much faster than firefox.

Hmm, I suppose those of us who have kept the tabs-on-top beta, or have managed to revert to it, will be screwed when Snow Leopard comes along (unless a] Apple give the option back, b] A future release of Firefox comes with the option, or c] Chrome becomes usable on the Mac).
Nope. I have just installed it though and I can't get over how slow version 3 was. V4 appears zippy load done. That blue progress bar always irritated me when it sometimes didn't finish.
Where's my stop button gone to... and it's not in the customize toolbar. Looks like I'll have to use the keyboard shortcut instead.
You mean to stop loading? It's in the address bar, the blue/white rectangle, the same as the iPod Touch.
Truth to tell, I'm really a Firefox fan, but having bought one of the new MBP 13" units, I've been playing around with Safari 4 and actually I like it a lot.
I tried installing AdBlock for it, and I can see that it's installed (there's a pane for it in Safari's preferences) but it isn't doing anything. Any thoughts, folks?
