Unable to access a specific website when Norton AntiTrack extension is ON or enabled

Certain websites require tracker blockers to be turned off in order to function correctly. Turning off tracker blockers may make your personal information vulnerable to cybercriminals.

Norton AntiTrack masks your personal information for the website to function correctly and blocks and notifies you of tracking attempts made by a specific website.

If a website does not work correctly due to tracker blockers, follow the steps below:

Fix it Option
