What are we looking for?

Didn't see any ads, Apple's or otherwise...

Thought it's prolly 'cause I'm running Ad-Block plus, so I disabled it.

Then I saw an Apple ad, but it was just a generic 'Get a Mac' static photo, some copy, and a link to the Apple website.

Was it one of the new ads mentioned here?

Hmmm... Do you have ad blocking enabled in your browser? The ad is still there when I disable Safari AdBlock...

Don't see it, either, today. What was it about? Maybe they have a different ad in its place now. I disabled AdBlock and saw there was now an ad for Google on the right hand edge of the window. dntknw.gif Which reminds me, I've had AdBlock running ever since moving to Safari beta, its version 0.3.2 and it's set to check for updates automatically. But there was another blocker that I had to disable in order to get Safari beta to even launch, and now I can't remember its name! wallbash.gif

XABD, you can watch the video on YouTube.

BTW, the current version of AdBlock is 0.4.0.
