Do you use NoScript ( Firefox Addon )

Yes. I use it on SeaMonkey and Firefox; I use something similar, NotScripts for Chrome OS, on Google Chrome.

 

Yes, and I browse both new & old sites. I personally wonder sometimes what types of sites a lot of people frequent that allowing scripts is necessary. I rarely ever have to allow them for sites to function properly to navigate around. I only ever have to to log in, and/or to watch videos (Youtube). And I don't even always have to to log in. For example... I just logged into Wilders and am posting without allowing any scripts or cookies (not even 1'st party)... and everything is working just fine.

And for people that can't be bothered to make a few mouse clicks to temporarily allow things from time to time, well... that's what the whitelist is for. I personally see the criticism of this add-on as being much ado about nothing.

 

I don't use it anymore since it started to annoys me.

It has some kind of extroverts behavior, obnoxious personality and mood swings that are similar to a two yr young child.

 

not using right now.....it blocks skydrive even though I allow it.......it's a sloppy hassle.......

 

You need to allow livefilestore.com (cookies/scripts) as well to use SkyDrive.

 

Great. Precise, pertinent and reproducible info

Seriously: I've been using Noscript for years, and it has always done exactly what it's supposed to do. Perhaps you should have read the NS features and FAQ site at least once ...

 

Yup.

Get's in the way a little when banking/shopping etc but for general browsing I love it. Use it with AdBlock Plus.

 

Sorry to sidetrack the original question a tad, does anyone use NoScript in conjunction with RequestPolicy 0.5.24?

 

No, since Opera's NoScript clone "NotScripts" doesn't work with LastPass and seems its development has been abandoned (last update 04/2011).

I'd like to though.

 

NoScript is the obligatory add-on

 

ah! I see......... using noscript again and can use skydrive.....thx a lot guest

 

I do. I've got my own white-list and blacklist. But I switch about the permissions depending on my needs at a given period of time and who I'm letting use my comp.

 

I used it in the past, but it got to be too much of a nuisance to keep around.

 

i originally voted no but i am using it now.

i tried it in the past but found it too complicated.
after using ScriptNo in Chrome NoScript makes more sense to me now.

but anyway, recently i have become convinced that the best place to fight the 'barbarians' is right at the gates.
and things like NoScript make it possible.

a lot of the web is accessible without javascripts and it is easy to temporarily allow a given website for the current session.

 

This is exactly what I believe. Hence why I use a light AV in combination with browser-end defence.

I also use NS in combination with Justin Samuel's RequestPolicy.

 

I'm leaving ScriptNo installed. It's currently not very intrusive, I've been slowly building up a very large whitelist.

 

tnx for the suggestion Daveski!
i saw it mentioned favorably at the Firefox addons store today but i added it after seeing your recommendation.

 

be careful not to include the whole internet! lol

 

I'll try haha

Is RequestPolicy necessary with ScriptNo?

 

i have read from a few reviewers saying that they they compliment each other.

it sure seems to be blocking different stuff than NoScript.

 

here:

 

Good to know, thanks.

 

lol. web pages sure seems to load a lot faster without all the extra crap loading.

some web pages won't work at all unless they've been both 'enabled' in NS and RP.
after a while you get to know exactly what resources is needed.

probably the ultimate protection against drive-by malware and exploits.
but you get a minor hit on convenience.

there ain't no free lunch i guess.

 

Using NOscript+Request policy is completely a torture lol

 

right you are.
i'll see how long i can tolerate the both of them.

one program like NoScript is bad enough, you put 2 of them together...

sure feels safe though. lol
