Just got my new iMac yesterday, and trying to work things out.
I searched this site, and can't seem to locate help; also googled my problem with little result.
I downloaded and (I thought) installed Safari AdBlock (the file name is 0.4.0 RC3.pkg in the Downloads folder). I've done this probably 4 times, and I can't find any reference to the application anywhere on my computer, nor in Safari itself.
There's a little open box with an emerging yellow cube in Downloads - Safari AdBlock. I double click, it installs, then it seems to end there. Can't find it.
Safari still shows ads, so I don't think it's working, and I can't find AdBlock to try and amend settings.
Please help. What am I missing? Where is it?
Thanks...

oh.

Thanks two you both.
Yes, using Snow Leopard, and no, it's not in Preferences. Will this be fixed then? Is there a different version? Thanks for the info.
As for 32 bit, that sounds too advanced for me on day 2 (or maybe it's not, I'm still uber-green)

The od thing is, I'm having the same trouble, however, I'm running Safari in 32-bit mode, I've got the preferences up to snuff in safari, but i'm still getting ads. It's just not blocking at all.
