- Safari 6 (OS X Mountain Lion): Block pop-ups and unnecessary content

ou can set Safari to prevent webpages from displaying pop-up windows or loading time-consuming content that may be unnecessary.
Unfortunately, many beneficial features use the same technology as ads and other content you might not want to see. So if you block pop-up windows or other web content, you might also block the animation and interactivity that make webpages interesting.
Block pop-ups on webpages
- Open Safari if it is not already open.
- Choose Safari > Preferences, and then click Security.
- Turn on “Block pop-up windows.”
Blocking pop-up windows stops only those windows that appear when you open or close a page. It does not block pop-up windows that open when you click a link.
If you block pop-up windows, you might miss important information for a webpage. For example, a website that provides services to you might use a pop-up window to request your user name.
