Trackers in POP UP windows
Noticed that I cannot access trackers in pop up windows. eg MSN Ads. is there a work around?
-
Greetings Peter,
Thanks for using Ghostery!
You can access the trackers detected by clicking on the Ghostery icon in the navigation bar, then clicking "Edit Blocking Options". There you can check or uncheck the trackers detected on the page you are on. Or you can go into your options menu and search for the tracker in the "Blocking Options" section.
Hope that helps!Comment -

That works fine for most everything...BUT with a pop up, clicking the Ghostery icon makes the pop up disappear and the tracker is not listed in the control window.
Any suggestions?-
This is important: Please tell us which browser you're using (name and version) and which version of Ghostery you have. It would also help if you included the URL of the page you used in your example.
Clicking anywhere in the purple Alert Bubble dismisses it immediately. It is not a control, and this behavior is intentional. As for trackers not being listed when you click on the ghost icon, we need to know which browser you're using and see how the particular page you're viewing invokes that tracker.

Hold your horses I found the solution.
After clicking the Ghostery icon, click on the Settings option and then use that window to do a Search for the tracker in question (in this case MSN Ads).
In this way you can manually add a tracker to the blocked tracker list. -

Hi Peter,
You should also be able to click on Ghostery's icon, click on Edit Blocking Options and then check/uncheck the checkbox next to the tracker's name to block/unblock it.
Is MSN Ads not showing up in the panel accessed by clicking on Ghostery's button? If so, are you using Firefox? Which page is this happening on? -
