For the record, I have never used this (" ctrl+shift+S ") hotkey. After reading about this functionality, I altered the " about:config " variable (changed to " ctrl+shift+N ") to use it. One reason I have never used the " ctrl+shift+S " is that key sequence ha...

I have a new install of Ubuntu (9.10, " Karmic Koala "), originally installed with Firefox 3.5.3 , Ubuntu -upgraded to 3.5.8 . I installed Firefox 3.6 via " Ubuntuzilla ", and was presented an unusual prompt. Firefox informed that " Additional Plugins " were required fo...

An update on my post: As the application (the ESPN -logon) seems to work (actually, quite faster and without hesitation), I am interested in how to address this second script-call. It appears similar to the successfully blocked call: Code: Select all http://a.espncdn.com/insertfiles/javascript/wa/sO...

Although related to a previous post in " NoScript General " ( InformAction Forums • View topic - Is this a NoScript, NoScript/ABE or ? ), I thought a post under " ABE " might be more appropriate. While on " ESPN.com " ( http://espn.go.com/ ), I found my old annoyance &q...

The AMO (Firefox Add-ons site) usually runs a tad behind what is actually available (quality assurance and all that). All is working well, except for the weather .

Just tested the aforementioned link (Radar) under .27 , FF 3.6.5 (beta) (as well as some other thingies). Java display is working, although I am glad to not be in the storm (18:09 on 18.12.2009)

AMO finally has caught up. NS 1.9.9.27 popped up this afternoon. (Now, if the LDB does not change in the next few minutes, we may have reached release " sympatico " :) ). On a tangentially related note, 1.9.9.27 functions well with my just-upgraded 3.6.5 (beta) . Perhaps the 3.7?.?.? late...

No problems experienced with NS 1.9.9.22 with two(2) banks and two(2) card companies. The "https" sites seem a bit slower at first site request, although I have not backed off to attempt to verify and quantify this.

What errors are you experiencing (besides not working) ?

I'm a little suspicious of a site that "doesn't supply any ownership information" and "could not be verified by Yahoo" when I tried to sign in with my Yahoo ID, which they allow; has as an author a Japanese site, but has a domain of Micronesia (small S. Pacific island country). ...

Revised surrogate works on 3.6.4 (beta) . Gracie. Will this be a prototype for only the IMDB, or a broader surrogate for DC ? (I had attempted the previous version on 12 Dec, without success (TA of "doubleclick.net" was still required then). Same problem was experienced on 3.5.1). @Tom T. ...

After clicking a link on the " IMDB.com " home page, the following page was presented: IMDb Video: Alice in Wonderland -- Teaser Trailer Not surprisingly, the video did not play. Right-click on the NS icon showed the usual suspects, including " media-imdb.com ". After (temporaril...

I would never use Chrome for any serious work, for lack of NoScript , AdBlock , and a clearer security picture. Just a personal observation, but as NoScript , ABP , Flashblock and other extensions remove , stop or render useless much of the revenue sources to Google, I am suspect of the intent of an...

Apologies if my "tin hat" reference was misinterpreted. Sometimes, humor is an interrupted defense mechanism. As I monitored this very interesting incident, the thought had arisen that malicious code might have been introduced from the Current User registry key(s), an area that is often li...

(At this point, the discussion went OT to the original thread, and became an extensive discussion of various security tools available from Microsoft. All succeeding posts on the latter topic were moved to Forum: Security, here: AV and other security tools available from Microsoft .) (Further posts ...

(I apologize for replying to myself ....) Re-stating my earlier question: " Should the permissions for open tabs have been automatically refreshed after import of the whitelist ? " And a second question: If I manually add " Untrusted " sites ( black-listed ) to the exported white...
