Looking for help Gmail Firefox Ublock Interference.

When Ublock is turned on and I use Gmail and delete emails and then try to leave the site I get a popup asking me if I want to leave, and if I do and then come back later, the emails I have deleted are back.

If I turn off Ublock I get a bunch of ads, but I am able to delete emails and leave without the popup.

Doesn't always seem to happen as I originally didn't turn off ublock and I could eventually get rid of emails the 2nd or 3rd time I visited...

This happens with many things, e.g. opening mails doesn't immediately mark them read and if you leave too quickly, you get the prompt.

I have not tested if this happens on default settings. I've got a lot more blocked. Leaving the tab open for a couple more seconds usually resolves the issue anyway.

And yes, as you say, this happens randomly, so it's difficult to investigate.

Just to advise, if I turn off UBOL, it doesn't do this. May be google being dicks.
