For some reason, Glimmerblocker does not work anymore. Any idea how to enable it again? It is listed as active in System Preferences.

There is AdBlock in the extensions but it seems that it uses more system resources.
 
do u have a proof about adblock using more system resources? i use adblock and it's great, don't have any problem with that.

I have been using Adblock for a day now and it seems more or less fine. On my 2008 unibody MBP I noticed whenever I used Adblock instead of Glimmerblocker, the laptop ran noticeably hotter and the scrolling was not quite as smooth.
