Ghostery 4.0.0 on Windows 7 x64 IE11 grows virtual size very fast and crashes windows

4.0.0 for IE on IE11 has a major problem in consuming virtual memory. Go to http://seekingalpha.com/news/all and let it sit there unused and watch IE virtual hit 1GB in no time at all. Removed Ghostery and problem disappears. Reproduced on 3 different x64 Windows 7 machines. Same thing happens on amazon.com but that site grows the working set fast only when using the site. Had to uninstall IE Ghostery unfortunately to keep from crashing on pagefile exhaustion. Latest Firefox version does not exhibit the problem. Any ideas? Thanks. Tom
