Ghostery

Significantly increased browsing speed.

This extension reminds me of NoScript, but has a much more user-friendly option system and built-in filter lists. For those having problems, make sure you click "manage" and then "options" to set what you want to block. If you block everything, then pages will be unable to load properly. This makes browsing sooo much faster and more secure! Like others, I've noticed incompatibility with both Adblock and Adblock Plus and I hope that this is resolved as these extensions are more fleshed out.

Working well. Thank you for the Windows Support. (For those complaining about not working, restart your Browser after installing)

I'm not a huge fan of ad blockers because, in the end, pretty much every site relies on ads to survive. I do, however, like being able to stop trackers knowing my entire browsing history. This extension does what I want without depriving the web sites I like of revenue. It's good enough that I would (gasp) pay for it!

The current Edge version behaves strangely compared to the Firefox and Chome versions I've been using. In Edge, when I open pages in new tab, they either close immediately or Edge tries to download the html. Disabling Ghostery fixes the problem. Again, this has never happened with Ghostery in other browsers -- I;ve synced my Ghostery settings so this behavior isn't expected.

Finally a stable and efficient blocker. It's obvious this was built for Edge and pages are loading almost instantaneously for me now. Highly recommended - skip the rest and get Ghostery.

Now it seems to be running perfectly. After the last time that I removed it I waited a week and re-installed it and for the last 2 weeks I couldn't be happier with it. With Ghostery on I can have numerous windows open and my CPU is running 78% free and my RAM is 71% free, without it the numbers are much worse. It really helps the computer run much better. I left the last review here: Even worse now it won't load "Options" or "Settings" after removing it and then downloading it again. unless they correct the major problems I would not bother downloading. Before it worked on all web sites but now it only works on secure websites https which makes it a lot less useful. Don't know why they did this but I might not keep it any longer.

Provides a fine level of control to block exactly what content you want to, and allow the content you want through
