Yellow alert bar gone; can't access "Recently Blocked"

I think this problem appeared after the most recent NoScript update. I no longer get the yellow alert at the bottom of the screen that allows me to see blocked scripts and selectively allow them. Because of that, I have no way to access the "Recently Blocked Scripts" list, since there doesn't seem to be any way to get to it *except* for that alert bar. As a result, I'm unable to access some sites (like MetLife dental insurance) because they post a message saying Javascript is off. I could temporarily allow all or disable NoScript, but I'd rather not.

Hope this helps...

There are lots of other ways to access NoScript's menu:
- Hover/click on the NoScript icon, which may be either on the navigation bar or the addon bar (press Ctrl+/ to toggle addon bar). You should also be able to right-click on one of those toolbars and select Customize to put the NoScript button wherever you like.
- Right-click anywhere on the page (or press Shift+F10) to access NoScript on the context menu.
- Go to Tools-Addons-Extensions and select NoScript Preferences, then choose the Whitelist tab, to add sites manually.
As ALbino mentioned, you should be able to turn the yellow bar on from the Options - Notifications tab. If that doesn't work, please let us know.
