Not really. The only settings they offer either A) Allow all sorts of crap you don't want, or B) Deny all sorts of useful things you
do want. Nobody should need to make that choice.
This is one more feature the iCab folks nailed years ago that other companies are still clueless about. Oh, if I only I had a browser like iCab with a rendering engine like Safari or Firefox, I'd be in browsing heaven...
You may want to check out
PithHelmet. Along with tons of other useful features, PithHelmet adds the ability to specify cookie preferences on a site-by-site basis. PithHelmet is nowhere near as flexible and powerful as iCab, but it goes a long way. (
Nothing is as flexible and powerful as iCab; iCab's got the Filtering System of the Gods, and everything else pales before its gloriousness!) Without PithHelmet, I consider Safari to be flat-out unusable. With PithHelmet, Safari is my #1 browser, and I hardly ever need a #2.

I couldn't agree more. I'll never understand how people can be so passive about this, and so critical of people who want to
know what the heck is going on with their computer.
