These aren't for Safari, but for those that use FireFox FlashBlock and NoScript will do this for FireFox NoScript actually allows selective execution (by URL) of all scripting in pages so you can allow one flash on the page to run while blocking other scripts, be they more flash or other scripts AdBlock Plus does active prevention of ads even loading, minimizing the bandwidth used. It is constantly updated with ad signatures so it will catch most any embedded ad you encounter. ...of course if you use IE, have fun watching the uncontrolled usurpation of your CPU by any and all ad agencies -- I'm a PC(x86 AND ppc) AND I RUN LINUX!!! Linux is like ice cream. It comes in many flavors and everyone has their favorite, but we all get the same smile regardless of which we choose to scoop.
