Just a heads up for a test/needs-fix for the bug blocking feature:
I'm using Chrome 6.0.495.0 dev and have just had a problem with flickr.com.
The 'Actions' and 'Share' dropdowns on a per-photo page wouldn't work. The popup appeared but was stuck with the flickr 'loading' animation.
It turned out it was the experimental 'Enable bug blocking' feature of Ghostery (v2.0.0) causing the problem. Disabling that again allowed flickr's dropdowns to work.

1Hi Ath,
Thanks for using Ghostery!
This is happening because Flickr bundles all of its scripts into a single file. One of the scripts bundled into the combined file is Yahoo Analytics, which currently gets blocked by default when blocking is enabled.
You can add flickr.com to the list of sites Ghostery won't perform blocking on as a workaround.
The next version of Ghostery for Chrome will let you block some bugs but not others, and provide quick access to blocking options right within the Ghostery browser popup. -

Ah thanks for that workaround. Confirmed working with 'http://www.flickr.com/ in the whitelist.
Just one thing though. If you've not clicked the blocking feature on you can't see the 'allow' list, nor are you even aware of its existence, it took me a moment to simply try re-enabling the blocking in order to spot it. "A whitelist will show below when this feature is selected" or similar in the text might be in order. -
