You can find all sorts of Safari add-ons at Pimp My Safari.

There is also Saft, which is much more than an ad blocker (it's good to encourage Hao Li, a terrific hard working developer who usually updates Saft within 24 hours or less of a Safari update). And a simple ad blocker is SafariBlock. There are others out there.

I hope this helps.

Edited to add :

DOH! Soulwar beat me to it.

Does anyone know if Pith Helmet is being updated? After I upgraded to Safari 3.1 is stopped working so I uninstalled it. Now there is a fix/hack available to make it work but that's if you still have it installed. I can't reinstall it because it states that it's not compatible with Safari 3.1.

How can I install ver. 2.8.2 again?
