Doesn't seem to catch the following potential trackers:
advanced-web-analytics.com
analytics-control.com
I only noticed b/c I also use SaferChrome extension.
Does not seem to be aware of advanced-web-analytics.com or analytics-control.com

It's not what you think it is. Step back slowly, and let the professionals handle this.

I have no idea what you're alluding to, Eric. Thanks for the noise.

Hi earthsound, thanks for using Ghostery.
Do you have a sample site with those trackers installed so I could review what they do? Thanks. -

Unfortunately, you can't see the page without being an ING Direct customer. When you go to https://secure.ingdirect.com and click Continue to go to the sign in w/ PIN page, & there you'll find them.
The first reference is a javascript function, just after the closing form tag:
<!-- Risk Based Assessment -->
Within that javascript is the reference to https://www.analytics-control.com/.
I assume it's one of the bank's security layers, but I haven't really looked into it.-
Or you could look at www.cibc.ca without being a customer.

@Eric: no, the cibc.ca site uses it in an entirely different way:
https://www.advanced-web-analytics.co...
In this case, I think it's checking to see if Rapport is running & if not, providing a link to download it.
See my earlier comment below for the different way that ING Direct is using that site (which, in turn, references analytics-control.com). I think it has to do with their Pinpoint product, but I haven't analyzed it myself.
I wish the banks/Trusteer (if it is their product) had more transparency and information regarding what these websites do. -

Going to try one more time...looks like the form ate some of the code.

I'm willing to concede that Eric is right, that is belongs to a Trusteer product sold to banks for end point security scanning (akin to it's Pinpoint product?). But the anonymized whois info on the 2 domains is not reassuring.

When I asked Trusteer about the links to the domains, they responded as follows:
Further information about this cookie indicates that Rapport places this cookie to help our customers, such as ING, to promote Rapport installation by their customers. We do not collect any information related to users’ browsing behavior or history.
Sincerely,

I'm still waiting to hear back from ING Direct.-
Since the links in question are not cookies, I wonder about the validity of this answer.
