Untrusted sites

[jonjonjon]

under the 'Untrusted' menu if i use 'Temporarily allow' noscript will temp allow the site but when i hit 'Revoke Temporary Permissions' or restart firefox the site isnt set back to 'Untrusted'. its easy to forget that you have to set the site to Untrusted again. keep up the good work.

If you think of it logically from NoScript's point of view, Untrusted means, literally, "I do not trust this site and *never* wish to allow it." If you TA it at even one site, then apparently you don't entirely mistrust it. So it goes back into the "default-deny" zone.

Which means that it still will not be allowed to run without your express permission.
"Untrusted" removes it from the main menu, which is convenient. But it is not required to mark as Untrusted to prevent scripts not in your Whitelist from running.

If you like, once it has been removed from Untrusted as per your post, just wait until it shows up again in the menu, requesting to be allowed, and then re-mark it as Untrusted. It cannot run in the meantime, regardless.

@OP: If there are sites that you usually don't trust, but sometimes want to allow at specific places - like advertisers - then you can try using ABE, or Adblock Plus, to manage them.

There's a sticky post about this.
