On video hosting/downloading sites, Ghostery blocks the kind of ads that appear on top of the video screens. On these same sites, Ghostery doesn't block popunder ads, which seem especially aggressive and hard to close out of.
The ads appear in new browser windows, even tho I have Firefox set to open new windows as tabs. I don't mind closing a few extra browser windows for my sins, but leaving aside their content, the ads are visually overwhelming/overactivating. Any thoughts?
As ever, Ghostery, thankyouthankyouthankyou! (P.S. Running Firefox on Windows XP SP3.)

Coping with pop-under ads on video download sites

Hey There.
Thanks for using Ghostery!
Might be best to include an adblocker. If the pop-under ads don't have 3rd party tracking scripts embedded, we won't find it.. but if you can send me an example URL I'll be happy to take a look and see what we can do!Comment -

Hi there, Pete. Sorry to be so long getting back to you. I thought I shouldn't add anything else because it might mess up Ghostery. If you say so, though, that's what I'll do. Thank you so much! Ghostery is a miracle program.
