Should I be concerned about the Webtrends script running on this page? Is this a tracking script? Why will Webtrends not allow Ghostery to show me the code that is running on this page?

Locking duplicate thread.

Ghostery now shows me that a Webtrends script is running on all Mozilla web pages, even the "secure" pages. Why are visits to Mozilla apparently being tracked? Ghostery is able to display the source code of most scripts, but is unable to show me the source code of the Webtrends script running here. Is Webtrends hiding this code, and, if so, why?

AFAIK - WebTrends is what Mozilla uses for their stats software. See their privacy policy for more info http://www.mozilla.org/about/policies/privacy-policy.html
