Strange blue links next to NS icon (scripts blocked)

Post by GH113 »

Hello!
I sometimes see strange blue links next to NS icon on web pages with blocked scripts. Screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/sDIU8k6.png
No URL because this is kind of web site that you should never visit: it will infect your computer, burn your house and kill your dog! I'll PM url to anyone who is willing to help. Any help is welcome!

What is especially strange to me is that these blue links contain domains that are missing in dropdown NoScript menu. So, the question is: what is it? Is it normal?
Nightly 17-07-17, NS5.0.7rc1 with following settings changed compared to default:
Settings - Embeddings - Forbid Frames, Forbid iFrames, Forbid WebGL, No placeholder for objects from untrusted sites
Settings - Advanced - Untrusted - Forbid bookmarklets, Forbid META redirections, Block scripting in whitelisted subdocuments of non-whitelisted pages

That is a NoScript feature, and yes it is normal.

IIRC that's controlled by about:config > noscript.jsredirectIgnore

Thank you very much! I set noscript.jsredirectIgnore to true and blue links are gone! :)
