metric.xxx.com scripts
metric.xxx.com scripts
I've noticed metric.xxx.com entries noted in the status line as being 'waiting for ..' on some websites. There is no entry in the script list to block/unblock this site url. One site I noticed these on is HTTP://WWW.CNN.COM. When you click on a story several site urls are shown as they load and the final one appears as 'metric.cnn.com'. This url takes upto 1 to 3 seconds to complete what is probably some data collection. I would love to be able to block this on the web sites that are using it. Thanks.

It's not a script, is just an image.
