seems so - sjk

I haven't had any crashes/hangs since reinstalling SafariStand and leaving PithHelmet uninstalled on my iMac G5.

Same here. Pithhelmet needs to be disabled to stop Safari 3.2 from crashing. Removing SIMBL from the /Library/InputManagers will do the trick. Shame though because PithHelmet is great and I'm very afraid it might take a while before it is updated. The only other good alternative I think is Firefox with Adblock+

disabling PithHelmet - sjk

Or just remove /Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins/PithHelmet.bundle if you have other plugins using SIMBL (e.g. SafariStand).

Sure hope this isn't the end of the road for PH. Maybe Mike can find a qualified developer to support it if he can't continue doing it.
