Ghostery2.5.2 is causing some webpages to to complete loading.

For example Free iPhone App Alerts.com, when clicking on an item it takes you to the iTunes web page for that item and from there you can go to iTunes itself. Well Ghostery 2.5.2 stops page loading before I get to the iTunes webpage. Ghostery has worked on Firefox 3.6 but it is not working on Ff 4. Help!

    Hi reglambri00, thanks for using Ghostery.

    Ghostery prevents redirects from the known trackers if such an option is chosen: looks like its on for you. It appears that the website you are referring to redirect you to an ad site first, before routing to iTunes. Because its a known tracker that you chose to block, Ghostery is disallowing this redirect.

    If you wish to use it regardless you may want to either whitelist this site, turn off blocking, turn off redirection prevention, or unblock LinkShare tracker.

    In the future, if you encounter this issue, Ghostery Blocking Log may assist you in discovering what Ghostery actually did. To open it, go to Tools -> Ghostery -> Block Log menu option.
