I'm using Safari 4 with the pop-up blocker enabled, but it doesn't seem to block anything. It's especially useless on imdb.com. Is there something else I can use?

Need Safari to remember my tabs

If I accidentally close Safari 4 with 7 tabs open, it doesn't seem to remember them when I reopen it. How can I change this?

If you want to try a built in option:
Safari > Menu bar Bookmarks > Add bookmark for these tabs.

"Print Selection" in Safari

Is there a way to highlight a selection of text and print only that selection within Safari? If so, how?

Images (only) sometimes load in Safari 4

This last week I've been hit with the dreaded "blue question mark" error in which thumbnails, ads, etc. never load and show up as a blue question mark. From e-mail newsletters to actual sites to message board avatars, it's beginning to bug me. I've reset Safari, emptied the cache, and tried Opera (which also has the same problem). Lastly, I reset my DSL modem to no avail.

The last time this happened I was on a cable connection that required a new router, but this DSL modem is brand new from AT&T. Speeds are fast, but images are suddenly all corrupted.

What can I do?

I don't think it has much to do with the router. Did you install adblockers or created any firewall rules using some other tool. When you right click on the Q mark and select reload, what does it say?

The only ad blocker I have is Safari's built-in one. I right-clicked, but it doesn't give me the option to Reload -- just Open in New Tab, Copy Address, etc.

I just tried it out with a PC and it works fine so, yeah, looks like it's not my connection.

Is Glims not compatible with Safari 4?

I had Glims (latest version) working fine with the Safari 4 Beta's, but then I updated to Build 5530.17 (in accordance with Leopard's routine Software Update) and it doesn't seem to be working even though I can still access the same preferences from the Menu Bar. Basically all I want is URL bar search engine and password storage. Is there something else out there that can do this?

This is what an average article looks like on my MBP:

None of the images work!
