I recommend uBlock Origin as a replacement for both Ghostery and Adblock Plus. Just an FYI.

Subject: [GLLUG] Ghostery Extension & gllug.org

I've installed a Firefox extension called Ghostery that displays and can 
block methods websites and companies use to track our web behavior.  I 
noticed that our website takes about two seconds to load now, versus 
maybe twenty, thirty, or more seconds it used to.  Ghostery blocks the 
Facebook Connect tracker, which speeds loading up considerably.  Of 
course, I've visited our website recently enough that the graphics are 
still in my cache, but this is over dial-up.
