Firefox Nightly 64bit build 32.0a1 (2014-04-29) - Ghostery works for about 1 second after clicking on icon and then becomes unresponsive. Brand new profile.
If I click on the icon really quickly, I can make the panel appear and disappear before it becomes unresponsive. If I am too slow, it becomes unresponsive with the panel still open, and I am unable to close the panel or move it or anything without restarting Firefox.
Once this lockup occurs, even customization breaks, and I am unable to move the Ghostery icon from the Nav panel to anywhere else.

Hi John,
Thanks for using Ghostery!
We are investigating some of the nightly build issues. Thanks for reporting! -
-
Details about my experience with (presumably) the same bug, taken from bug report submitted to Mozilla:
User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.9; rv:32.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/32.0 (Beta/Release)
Build ID: 20140502030202
Steps to reproduce:
- start OS X Firefox Nightly (32.0a1 (2014-05-02)) with ghostery 5.2.1 installed
- click on ghostery icon, see box open as expected
- click outside box to make box disappear
- now, click and hold on "History" menu (for example)
Actual results:
- history menu does not appear. None of the menus appear when clicked, *except* the "apple" and "Nightly" menus in the top left corner.
Expected results:
Menu should have appeared under "History" label.
***
After follow-up with Mozilla, I observed this using -jsconsole:
On clicking the ghostery button, I got these two lines:
- value is not a non-null object browser.js:14799
- docShell.QueryInterface(...).sessionHistory is null content-sessionStore.js:228
On dismissing the window, I got this message:
- Empty string passed to getElementById().-
Thanks for this John.. forwarding to dev

I just did some investigating of my own, and these are the errors that popup when I have Ghostery enabled and use the pull down menu to add / remove blocks:

With Ghostery blocking all the advertising and beacon trackers in the past, without it I'm having a really hard time with many sites that make extensive use of ads like XDA - NoScript goes crazy every time I load, and Request Policy doesn't help b/c I don't know which ones I should block and which I should keep - only Ghostery provides nice detailed info on each tracker.
And I miss it :(
FWIW, if you have test builds and would like some additional testing performed, feel free to give me a nudge via email :)
I have Nightly, Nightly x64, and Aurora installed, and I update them daily, so....
