Security Downgrade warning - restore?

[Oink]

Hi, looking to restore previous Noscript (2.6.8.28) function after I chose (No, just stop blocking scripts), after trying to find out why photos are heavily jpeg'd on http://www.bbc.co.uk/newsbeat/27794411, from the disable button on the Extension window of the addons window.

The Noscript icon on the toolbar has a red italic exclamation point on it, it didn't before.

Any help appreciated- Firefox 8, Windows 7 Home premium

Thanks, I feel humbled.

Any idea why the photos don't show properly?

[barbaz]

No. Personally I'd just dismiss that as something on their end.

Are you saying that without NoScript, they display in higher resolution?

[Oink]

Thing is, disabling Noscript didn't help but using IE9 on the same computer, they show OK after a slight pause, they seem to go from low res to normal. I thought that the problem might have something to do with Noscript on Firefox? I don't know, just guessing.

Pix display in higher resolution if I temp-allow "bbc.co.uk" and "bbci.co.uk"

[Oink]

Interesting, I'd already allowed those, just tried adding 'chartbeat' but again the low res photos remain. It's given me a headache so I'll try again tomorrow, thanks again.

It screams "bad site design" that you need JS to load hi-res images which only load *after* low-res versions have also loaded...

Being on Firefox 8.0.1 might have something to do with your issues... don't have a copy of that on hand to test myself, sorry.

it's the same for me.. if i allow scripting for "bbc.co.uk" and "bbci.co.uk", the images display fine..

however, it is strange that you have to allow scripting for "bbci.co.uk" in or for the images to display properly.. i have never seen anything like that before..

also..i don't know if it makes a difference, but..i use a lot of custom-rules with "adblock plus" and, in my custom-rules, i have "bbc.co.uk" and "bbci.co.uk" whitelisted.. that is because i have another custom-rule that blocks everything else that ends with ".co.uk"..
