When I go go Options and click on a site to make it Trusted, a red unlocked padlock appears. Then I click on the Trusted word to the left of the padlock and I see that everything is checked except "Scripts". "Scripts" has a light checkmark that I cannot change.
So I then click the red unlocked padlock and it turns green. But when I then click on the Trusted word I see that everything is checked except for the "Scripts" box and that box still has a light checkmark.
To me as one who is learning NoScript, that means there is no difference between the red and the green padlocks, but that can't be true. So what am I missing here, and how should the checkboxes be checked for a red and for a green padlock?

Green lock = Applies to HTTPS Only.
Red unlock = Applies to both HTTP and HTTPS.
It doesn't affect what types of content are allowed. So the checkboxes should be the same in both cases.

Re: Can't See Difference between Red and Green Padlocks
Okay, thanks for your help. But I would think that if I trust an https site then how do I allow that https site to run scripts?

NS version 10 seems to be working pretty good for me now. Don't know if it's because of your help, or because of my slightly better understanding of how NS works, or because of slight little changes in the user interface regarding the "temporarily allow" icons, or whatever, but I'd like to thank you for your help!
