If you’re a Safari user who enjoyed plug-ins — some people insist on calling them Input Managers, we’re agnostic on the subject — like Glims and PithHelmet in Leopard, and you’re sad to see that they don’t work in Snow Leopard, you’ll be happy to see an update to SIMBL that will let you hack your plug-ins back to life. The new version of SIMBL does indeed work with Snow Leopard, although you’ll need to run Safari in 32-bit mode until plug-in developers write 64-bit versions of their plug-ins.
After installing SIMBL, you’ll want to drop some plug-ins into your /Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins folder. Next, find Safari and put it in 32-bit mode by doing a quick Get Info and checking the box. When you fire up Safari, your plug-ins should be working just as they did in Leopard. It’s a bit hacky, but I definitely prefer it to browsing without an ad blocker. If you’re wondering where to find plug-ins, you can check out some of my favorites in this post.
