[QUOTE="Lifeisabeach, post: 1903713, member: 38864"] LOL! As if I don't know this. Wow. Someone has drunk some heavy duty kool-aid here. I'd love to know just what, exactly, it is that Kaspersky is "checking for" with every link you open. And FYI Safari WILL quarantine certain types of downloads for you to check. I'm also going to point out that I SPECIFICALLY said you should be running a good adblocker, which makes me wonder why you are asking if Safari has common AdBlocker functionality. But to further answer that question... yes. Yes it does block pop-ups. It's a preference that you can fine tune. By default, you can block them on all websites and whitelist certain ones. Oh, and is Google's phishing filter effective? Can you name a better one? And tell us what actually makes it better? And more to the point... explain WHY it's so necessary given the safe browsing and security practices outlined earlier? [/QUOTE]
