When opening certain websites, 2 items are not blocked. Pinterest and Twitter.

Although selecting and saving to block, still not blocked....

    Hi There,

    Thanks for using Ghostery!

    Which browser? Can you send me a screenshot of your Blocking Options section showing them blocked? If Firefox, do you have them set to block on both blocking and cookies tab?

    Firefox. Set to block ont both blocking and cookies tab.

    See screenshots. As you see, even selecting block all, afterwards in widgets, some stay unblocked. Like it does not "keep" my selections.
    Screen 1
    Screen 2 + reload
    Screen 3 (like screen 1 - as if it does not keep my selection.
    Screen 4 : options - trackers (widgets stays partly unblocked)
    Screen 4b : options - trackers widgets all selected + SAVE
    Screen 5 : all selected (saved in screen 4b) changes again into screen 3 (widgets partly unblocked)
    Screen 6 : cookies - all blocked (and stays like this) (no problem)
