I have used and recommended Saft for years. While hesitant, I sprung for the upgrade to the Snow Leopard version when it was finally out of beta. This was a mistake.
With Glims now available for free, and superior in most ways but lacking ad blocking, the only reason I wanted to get Saft back on my system was to block ads. I am tired of seeing the same damned "I got ripped in 4 weeks" and countless phony Internet dating ads. I also had 4 years of carefully selected Saft ad blocking patterns built up. Why am I so disappointed?
Saft ad blocking no longer works properly.
It works if you try to load a single image directly. You'll get a Saft dialog in the Safari window which describes how Saft blocked the URL based on a given pattern. But there the ad sits in the middle of a web page, displayed as normal. This occurs through refresh, re-launch, cache reset, Saft settings wipe, and even a full Safari reset. As a Saft user for years, I know how it's supposed to work and now it does not. For the record, this is with the SIMBL plug-in install, running Safari in 64 bit mode. (The other methods cripple Safari, and are not an option.)
Why not just report this to the developer? Because I have reported issues and asked questions in the past and I've learned that you may, or may not, get a reply weeks later, and it will rarely be more than one terse sentence which may, or may not, be relevant to your topic. In other words, the message is now "go away." Message received.
I would no longer recommend paying for Saft. Good luck navigating his web site if you wanted to.
Instead, grab these: Glims and Safari AdBlocker. Together, they cover what Saft claims to do, they do it better (right click to kill bad Flash!), they don't require you to wait for new versions with every Safari update (working fine in Safari 4.0.4 today), and they are both free. Safari AdBlocker even includes the necessary SIMBL, whereas Saft couldn't even provide a link to the SIMBL web site.

One should know that the price of this product is now $15.00 and not $12.00 as shown on this site.
I asked Li Hao about that, but he just ignores my emails. Now I am trying to get refund from PayPal.
I highly recommend 'Glims' and "Glimmer Blocker' duo to get full Saft replacement FOR FREE!
Eat my five bucks, Li Hao!
