The ad blocking and Privacy Extensions for Safari

Hello.  I have two questions really.  I often watch videos using sites such as Vodlocker, thevideo.me, GorillaVid, beststreams, streamin.to, vidzi.tv, etc..,.

1. What are the best extensions to use Safari block ads, menus, embedded, redirects and especially pop-under?  I have AdBlock Plus, but it doesn't seem to block ads and work well with redirects or pop-under.  And Yes, I already have the box checked in my security settings to block pop ups!  (In my experience, it doesn't work well.)

There are also Ublock, Ka-block!, Wipr, Adamant and Glimmer Blocker I know.  The problem is the Gallery Extension Safari no longer allows the notice of any extension, which is ridiculous.  Not being tilted technologically, I relied heavily on reviews!  For the life of me, I do not understand why Apple has stopped allowing customers.  Ublock caused some sites Web works is not for me.

2. what privacy extensions work best?  In general, for general use in computer science and in conjunction with ad extensions?

I would like to find the best combination of ad blocking and security extensions.  Unfortunately, I am not versed with those who is so advanced, requiring the user to enter and write the code to prevent certain types of advertising.  I'm open to hearing all the tips and suggestions!  And thanks in advance to those who take the time to reply and help!

There are a few easy steps you can take to improve your privacy on the Web.

In the Safari menu bar, select

▹ Safari preferences... ▹ Extensions

An inventory of the extensions you have installed, as appropriate. A few Safari extensions are adware or spyware. Carefully read the privacy policies or the terms of use. Delete everything that you don't really need, or you are not sure.

An extension that you may want to install is called "Ghostery." It blocks tracking cookies a lot. Extensions "ClickToFlash" and "ClickToPlugin" prevents Flash content from loading automatically.

If you have installed hacks supported by advertising as "Glims" affecting the Safari, uninstall them as instructed by the developer. Doing so will improve the stability of Safari, as well as your privacy.

In the Safari Preferences dialog box, select the Privacy tab. You have the option to delete data, such as cookies, stored on your computer by web servers. You can delete all of these data, or only some of them remove by clicking on the Details button. The other parameters are little explicit.

On a more advanced level, you can change the DNS servers used by your computer or router, to find the addresses of all the Internet servers that you use. In general, the best choice from the point of view of privacy is to use the DNS servers of your ISP. Your Internet traffic goes through the network of your Internet service provider anyway, so in theory, there is no loss of privacy in the use of its DNS servers. Avoid third party DNS services such as "OpenDNS", which is in the business of selling your information to marketing specialists.

Consider using software like 'GlimmerBlocker' ad-blocking, which also blocks certain forms of abuse of JavaScript that can be used to track you. It is only suitable for advanced users, and it can block some web content you want to see.

This comment is not an endorsement of any third party software. Do your own research before deciding whether to use the software.

When you use a public network such as a Wi - Fi hotspot, don't forget that others connected to the same network may be able to listen to your network traffic. They will not be able to read the content of this traffic, if you connect to Web sites secured like this, but they know the addresses of the sites. It is the same for the e-mail and Messaging. Public VPN services to sell as a solution to this problem, but using these services may have a serious security and privacy implications.

  • Apply effects to the text block and not the text

    I am trying to apply a shadow to a text block, but he keeps applied the effect of text rather than the text block.  I click on the text block, and then effects and shadow and object is selected in the 'Settings For' drop-down box.  However, he maintained the application of the shadow to the text, rather than to the text block.   I am doing this wrong, or is there something else I need to do?

    I'm sorry, but that 'rare' mean in this sentence? If you are having problems with a charger and the phone, he came up with that is still under warranty, the unit would be under warranty. It will have to be reviewed by Apple, they make determinations. If you have purchased separately the charger, then it must be aged less than 1 year, and the review itself would apply. I hope that's what you're referring to.

    Apple says the following:

    For best performance, I would say not less 4 GB and preferably 8 GB or more.

    Original title: keyboard

    Go to the Panel control, region, language, keyboards & languages, change keyboards, tab bar of language and, if you regularly change language settings, make the hidden language bar.

  • get the IOPS / s and flow rate for each card of vmhba

    Hi, I have seen a few difficulties for the IOPS / s and flow stat for esxi for each vmhba card get the average, max, min

    I can get some network like net.usage.average, net.received.average and net.transmitted.average parameters as the metric is consolidated for all the network card.

    Here is the part of the classic script I use

    $metrics = "net.received.average", "net.transmitted.average".

    Get-Stat - entity $esx - start $start - finishing $stop - MaxSamples 10000 - Intervalmin 30 - stat $metrics |

    Group-object - property {$_.} @entity.name} | %{

    $esxname = $_. Group [0]. @entity.name

    $hard = (get-VMhost-name $esxname) .extensiondata. Summary.Hardware

    $netreceived = $_. Group | where {$_.} MetricId - eq "net.received.average" - and $_. {Instance - eq ""} | Measure-object-property value - average - Maximum - Minimum

    $nettransmit = $_. Group | where {$_.} MetricId - eq "net.transmitted.average" - and $_. {Instance - eq ""} | Measure-object-property value - average - Maximum - Minimum

    and so now, but on the storage card, consolidated metrics do not exist...

    Thank you very much!

    Try something like this

    $esx = Get-VMHost MyEsx$stat = "storageAdapter.numberReadAveraged.average","storageAdapter.numberWriteAveraged.average"$start = (Get-Date).AddMinutes(-5)
    
    Get-Stat -Entity $esx -Stat $stat -Start $start |Group-Object -Property Instance,Timestamp | %{$_ |Select @{N="Timestamp";E={$_.Values[1]}},@{N="Instance";E={$_.Values[0]}},@{N="Read IOPS";E={$_.Group | where {$_.MetricId -eq "storageAdapter.numberReadAveraged.average"} | %{$_.Value/$_.IntervalSecs}}},@{N="Write IOPS";E={$_.Group | where {$_.MetricId -eq "storageAdapter.numberWriteAveraged.average"} | %{$_.Value/$_.IntervalSecs}}}}
    

    It uses more or less the same concept that I used in my post to get the OPS are / s maximum .

  • Any way to hide the trash, sent and drafts folder for some accounts (IMAP)?

    Hello!

    I use thunderbird for quite awhile, I am currently using 38.1 on Win 7 64 bit. I have multiple IMAP accounts, set up, as well as an entry to local folders. I things to be implemented so that the sent copies are not saved, and the project for two IMAP accounts files is set to save to local folders-> drafts.

    However, two imap accounts still have sent and draft entries (that take up valuable space). Is it possible to remove or delete these? I was just as quickly also hiding so if possible the entries of trash for imap accounts.

    I found this thread earlier-
    https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1010341 ,
    and looked into the unified view. It works really well for me, since I still have all of these entries (though in place of a mimimizable instead of duplicate between all three accounts), and it makes my file appear in a bit of a weird order. I also found the extension "Hide local folders", but it's kind of the opposite of what I need - I would like to draft appears here, instead of in the IMAP accounts.

    Thanks for the tips!

    If you select a textframe, you already have a textframe. So, if you choose app.selection [0] .textFrames [0], this means an anchored within a textframe textframe.

    And: You try to create your textframe on page 1. But you must add the new textframe on the page following the page of your choice.

    So, try this one:

    var curDoc = app.activeDocument;
    var frame1 = app.selection[0];
    var parPage = frame1.parentPage.documentOffset;
    var frame2 = curDoc.pages[parPage+1].textFrames.add({geometricBounds: [50, 50, 100,100]});
    frame2.previousTextFrame = frame1;
