Hi guys,

Just tried to install Safari AdBlock 0.4.0RC3 to get rid of some adverts.

Downloaded off CNET and installed, restarted iMac and Safari loads up pages without any images but with the Flash ads still there -_- talk about useless.

Anyway, can't get rid of it and Safari is now incredibly slow. Managed to download Chrome and then try and reinstall Safari to no avail. Looked in the install log for an idea where it might have installed the adblocker (ran the install again) but nothing. Just specified a temporary directory which it deleted after it had been used.

I don't really care about those adverts anymore I just want to restore Safari to how it was before. OS X should really allow you to see the exact directory files are installed to rather than just 'Macintosh HD'.

Any advice?
