Surprised to see this:


 ......when I went to have a look at my security report.
 
 
After a bit this page said I should contact you guys for support.


 
 
 
 
So here I am.
 
Is Crazy Egg the culprit?
 

Best answer by Wydeloads

The page is now normal and displays correctly without me even doing nothing.
 
A glitch I guess.
 
Thanks for the input you guys.:womanvery-happy:
 
Support read here I guess so they know what's happened and it's their call why they need to track members on their security report page.
 
Call me crazy but I still  think it's Crazy Egg making omelettes and hashing things up.

Not sure what is happening there but I am not having the same issue and I have just checked Ghostery and Crazy Egg is showing up as blocked but I also have some different trackers showing up/being blocked:
 


  
so it may be one of the ones that we do not share.
 
I will have to investigate further as the only other thing that is different is that I have not been notified about or seen a Security Report.
 
Regards, Baldrick

Hi Rick that is Bald - nice to see you again.:D
 
How many trackers have you got?
 
I guessed it was Crazy Egg the culprit as if blocked it stops most Webroot page content from loading. Even here.

Hi Wydeloads
 
5 trackers and NO content being blocked AND Crazy Egg IS being blocked by Ghostery...so I cannot confirm your supposition. I suspect that it is one of the others that you have that I am not seeing.

What are the trackers for?
 
I block the trackers 'cause Ghostery tells me.
 
Only thing is then I don't get to see the security report page but you say you don't block them.
 
Why don't you block the trackers and shoud I unblock them even though Ghostery tells me they're bad?

I actually block ALL trackers but I am not getting the issue that you are reporting...so as I suggested previously...you should open a support ticket t? get the Support Team to investigate this for you.

You got a Twatter Advertising Tracker and I ain't. But you block them all anyways. Only difference I can see. 
 
My hub blocks all Twatter advertising, so maybe that's it.
 
Someone please tell me why this page - about my own security report - needs 3rd party advertising trackers anyway?

Hi Wydeloads
 
As I said the best people to answer that question are the Support Team. Why don't you open that suport ticket (link in a previous post) and provide them with a link to this thread so they can review our discussions/the information provided? I am sure that they can figure this out for you.
