For those of you that use any form of content blocker for Safari, I could use some advise on which one to use...
What I'm looking for is;

1) a good ad blocker that blocks most of those annoying ads
2) protection against hidden viruses within ads
3) good customisation options
4) a whitelist
5) my preference goes out to a Safari extension, WITHOUT the need of an additional app.

- I already found some content blockers online, here are some that caught my attention;
