   A good thing, Ed.  It's doing its job...

   I do that on my Linux machines as well, as a matter of routine with newly   
   browsed websites.

   Ghostery is unknown here.

   Nope.  You're doing well, Ed.  It's a slow process dealing with the garbage on   
   some websites.  There are some places I've completely backed-off from and gone   
   elsewhere.  Some sites just aren't worth the heartburn.   
      
   Cheers,   
   Paul.
