You could also go to the Snap FAQs to turn Snap off globally, for all websites. (For best results, clear your cache first ( Read more... )

Those snap things were driving me mad on Opera. I am obsessive about banishing unwanted cookies and they do not stay long on my computer. I googled and found advice that said to put *something.snap.com/somethingelse* in the content blocker. It didn't work. So I simply added *snap.com*, and it seems to have fixed the problem. Of course, the snap.com website can't be seen, but I don't have any need for it.

I'm pretty sure that the specific URL to block is:
http://shots.snap.com/snap_shots.js

(That way you don't block the whole Snap site.)

Thanks, I'll put that one in the filter :)

Off is hard? So is on. purrplexitty November 20 2008, 20:31:58 UTC

For everyone that had an issue turning it off? I'm having a problem turning it back *on*. Even with the damned "enable graphics" thing checked, it won't come back.

Mostly I want it back for the same reason a few others do, artsy stuff.

I tried to turn it off for just one time, so I could copy a link (because yes, I agree it can be annoying. But also sometimes handy.) And I tried to choose it for "This site only". Nope..it's off..and won't come back on.
