I have kind of the same trouble:

Glims works after re-installing, but doesn't load properly after a restart. Any ideas very welcome, as without Glims, using Safari is just no option anymore.


What I did so far: A complete erase of glims (using the uninstaller and then searching with spotlight for all files containing glims in their name and dumping them). Restart. Then reinstalled 1.0.41 a couple of times, but now success.

I contacted the GLIMS developer, but no answer so far.


However, some thoughts others might help me with:

After installation with a working GLIMS, activity monitor shows me two time "Glims Agent", one running as root, another one as user. After a restart, only the root one runs. If I double click the Glims Agent (/Library/Application Support/Glims/Agent/Glims Agent.app) nothing happens. If I fire the Glims Agent through terminal (sudo open.../ open) nothing happens neither.


I have the feeling everything started after I let run a CleanMyMac over my machine (please don't shoot me for doing so). However, I'm not 100% sure this is the culprit.


After installing, I get the following messages in the console and glims works like a charm:
