Ghostery Causes Blank Popups in Firefox 40

Uncategorized · August 12, 2015

If you just upgraded to Firefox 40 and get blank popups, Ghostery may be to blame. I was getting blank popups anytime a page opened a share or save dialog (tried Twitter, Pinboard and Facebook).

Here’s what I was seeing when trying to share anything:

I Can't Has Popups! :(
I Can’t Has Popups! 🙁

After some troubleshooting, I disabled Ghostery and everything works like a charm now!

Of course, this means that you won’t have protection from tracking in between. I’d suggest using Disconnect till Ghostery is fixed.
