On the outside, most of the web page may seem harmless to you. But what you don’t know is that there are many sort of trackers that are used by a particular website or blog to track you.
Ghostery is an add-on for your Firefox browser that notifies you about the invisible web bugs, ad networks and widgets that contained on every web page. Using this firefox extension, you can find out how web sites or blogs that you visit, are watching you across every page on their site.
So what is web bugs? Well, web bugs are hidden scripts that track your behaviour and are used by the sites you visit to understand their own audience. By collecting these information, advertisers can target and serve the right ads that match to your behaviour.
If you are interested to find out what kind of scripts on any web site or blog are used to track you, then take a look at this handy extension.

Some of the ‘web bug’ that i try can’t detect by Ghostery such as from China website ,maybe Ghostery database not fully cover.
What i thought web bug that can detect by Ghostery is consider ‘Good’ web bug.If wanted to fully blocking this kind of script,better use ‘No script’ firefox add-on
This is really cool.
Great. Thanks..
