Ghostery

[TomFace 539]

Something  that is non-ESET........Is anyone else having issues using Ghostery? I see their cert expired today (getting notices from EIS):

And when I try to go to their website to inform them (via IE11 and Firefox) I am unable to get there (even if I pause Ghostery protection), like they're offline. Or is EIS stopping me from going there? I blocked the action (as a precaution) when the EIS notice came up. If I recall correctly, in the past when I blocked questionable certs, I was usually allowed to proceed.

The Ghostery icon is giving me a blocking count so that seems to be functional. Any thoughts?

Don't use ghostery but the certificate is expired. Modern browsers wont let you connect to sites when this happens as a precaution as the domain can be hijacked. Im sure once they realise the certificate has expired they will fix it.

You're faster than I am CH! Guess I'll just wait and see what they do in the next 24-36 hrs.

Best thing to do is maybe contact the site, contact them on twitter etc.

Ghostery is apparently "working on it". Contacted them via Twitter.

That's great! I already thought ghostery was hacked also faced the same problem

Glad I'm not alone Alexander.Badjin. I was hoping I wasn't THAT special 

That same thought (hacked) crossed my mind (or even another CCleaner fiasco  that one still stings a bit).

In case anyone wants a follow up, looks like their cert has been resolved.
