Bug Blocking removes some Tumblr links
When "Web Bug Blocking" is enabled, the "Follow" and "Dashboard" links in the top right corner of Tumblr blogs disappear. Using Firefox 3.6.16 on Windows 7.

1Hi Scott, thanks for using Ghostery.
Tumblr scripts that Ghostery tracks are usually embedded on 3rd parties sites operated by Tumblr system. As such, they are identified, and if you selected Tumblr to be blocked, they will also be blocked. If you are a user of Tumblr, then you might wish to leave Tumblr entry in the database unblocked. Additionally, if you wish to permit it for a single site, whitelist the site in question and it will be allowed through on the site. -

This fix worked for me. However, I'm confused as to why Tumblr doesn't appear in the popup. (If it did, it would make this problem a lot simpler to diagnose.) Could you please explain?

Hi Richard, thanks for using Ghostery.
Could you please share the site it happened on so I could check whats happening? Thanks. -

It happens on every blog that is hosted on Tumblr.
One example:
http://log.scifihifi.com/
(With Tumblr blocked the link buttons at the top right hand corner of the site are hidden. With Tumblr blocking disabled, the buttons appear. However, in neither case is Tumblr listed in the Ghostery pop-up.) -
