Chas4 Posted October 21, 2021 ID:1484769 Share Posted October 21, 2021 @tomi30 I have 16GB and it still had issues, I killed the scam blocker progress (seems like it was stuck in a non hanging loop or something) and after a reboot it has been loading fine. I know Safari 15.1 is in testing by Apple. Link to post

Unless you are fully informed and possess the necessary skill sets, many experienced, with the battle scars to prove it, do not to test two betas simultaneously without knowingly accepting the outcome. Just sayin... Cheers Link to post
Chas4 Posted October 22, 2021 ID:1484927 Share Posted October 22, 2021 @1PWI know I am stating that Apple is testing 15.1 not sure if there are any extension related fixes in it. Side note I am one of the founding members of the Windows Insider Program. Link to post
Popeye Posted October 23, 2021 ID:1485055 Share Posted October 23, 2021 Update: Safari Browser Guard updated to v 1.0.4 a few days ago. Working good on Catalina, Safari v 15.0 👍 1 Link to post
Massimiliano Posted October 24, 2021 Author ID:1485157 Share Posted October 24, 2021 (edited) It had been going well for days specifically since I wrote it on October 13As of this morning October 24, the problem looks like this See attached screenshot The Logo in the bar is blue Ads/Trackers and PUPs are activated without problems while Malware and Scams are running endlessly for hours It happens with all sites, both those subject to blocks and those such as this forum that is not in Allow List because it is not subject to blocks on my Mac from Safari settings. UPDATE Steps taken to possibly have a solution I tried uninstalling both MBG and 1Blocker - the latter lately on macOS was giving problems on several sites (much less on iOS and iPadOS although it presents problems there too) - I ran Maintenance of Titanium-Software.fr to do a maintenance of my Mac. I only installed MBG. It is very slow in activating the 4 switches At the moment it seems OK but everything remains to be verified. Surely there is still some problem I will update the post in case of news Edited October 24, 2021 by Massimiliano Maybe solved, but everything remains to be verified Link to post
Staff gatortail Posted October 25, 2021 Staff ID:1485363 Share Posted October 25, 2021 We are targeting an update in the next release (v1.0.5) to improve the loading of the block files. 1 Link to post
Staff Solution gatortail Posted October 26, 2021 Staff Solution ID:1485585 Share Posted October 26, 2021 @Massimiliano A database fix was pushed outside of release. Please try again. Link to post
Dales Posted October 27, 2021 ID:1485692 Share Posted October 27, 2021 With the latest database fix, it does appear that the Malware and Scan indicators have been corrected. Unfortunately, nothing is blocked for me except the ads and trackers. I tested with both "keepass.com" and "maliciouswebsitetest.com", and neither was blocked. Before testing, I removed all other extensions and also updated to MacOS Monterey. I'm running a MacBook Air M1 with 8GB memory. I have decades of C/C++ programming experience, so I'm plenty careful on how I evaluate software. A few pertinent screen shots are captioned below. Link to post

As per the previous post update it seems to be working (even with Monterey which I didn't have before). 1Blocker at the moment is uninstalled because lately is giving me problems with too many sites 1 Link to post
Staff gatortail Posted October 27, 2021 Staff ID:1485757 Share Posted October 27, 2021 @Dales Thank you for confirming. The two sites you mention are categorized more as Windows threats and thus are not currently included in the Safari list. Link to post
