AddThis loads a lot of unnecessary CSS

blueseedproject Sep 20, 2012 06:39AM EDT

When running a web page speed analyzer on a page using AddThis, one can see a lot of "unused CSS" warnings, concerning the massive amounts of CSS that AddThis brings, but are never used.

For example, check this report, http://gtmetrix.com/reports/blueseed.co/iFykSAVU, and click to expand "Remove unused CSS".

About 40% of the CSS on our homepage is from AddThis and not used.

Is there a way to prevent this CSS from loading?
