"google translate" and ac_runactivecontent.js

[prabhatjn]

Hi all,

I saw that there was one discussion on this same topic before, but I decided to come back to it because it does not solve the problem. On various news site (especially when i use google translate service to read Israeli news) I still get the warning regarding "ac_runactivecontent".
e.g. if you open the page of URL:
http://translate.googleusercontent.com/ ... ujyb1V6jkw

Please Let me know if there is any easier solution to this.

Thanks in advance,
Perry.

I can't reproduce any problem using NoScript 1.9.9.71 in Fx 3.6.4 RC1.

Update to the latest development build, 1.9.9.71 and retest. If your problem persists, follow the troubleshooting steps here:

(I'd skip step 2 for now.)

Hi Alan,

I am using the same latest noscript version, but firefox 3.6.3, and I also disabled other addons just to check but the problem stays. I also follow other steps you sent the link but still it has no effect (Except the last step, where clean install is needed because I actually reinstall my whole windows 7 recently). The same problem I have on my laptop as well. I guess I have to stay with it

Thanks again for your help,
Perry.

You're welcome. Yes, Fx 3.6.3 is what you should be using. I'm beta testing Fx 3.6.4, which has some unrelated bugs still to be fixed before final release.

Since you didn't provide any specific details, I never knew exactly what your problem is. But, if you followed all the troubleshooting steps, I don't know what else to suggest. Have you tried creating a brand-new test profile with no changes to it, followed by installing NoScript with its default settings?

Hi,

I discovered the problem, When trying to use google translate I am required to enable googleusercontent.com site (so that I can read the text in English as well as Hebrew simultaneously). But enabling this site brings the annoying message of "this page requires ac_runactivecontent.js." Now I understand the problem, but I am not sure how to solve it(without disabling googleusercontent!!)

OK. I get the popup too if I Allow googleusercontent.com. If you Allow next-net.co.il then ac_runactivecontent.js can be executed.

Edit: By the way, it may be safer to add translate.googleusercontent.com to the whitelist rather than the more general googleusercontent.com.
