reload of tab in Fx when switching to it

Hi people,

I am now using NS v 2.6.6.8 with Ubuntu Fx v 22 but the problem appeared at an earlier upgrade (of either). The problem is this: I generally have many tabs open in the browser to refer to later or even on the next day. Fx then sometimes reloads that tab, and that is not usually what I want, I want to see what was on there before (when I originally retrieved the Web page).

Can't seem to find out what causes this behaviour. I suppose I could just browse without NS for a day but that doesn't sound attractive to me. Any ideas (or pointers) would be nice.

By default, NoScript automatically reloads pages when you change the permissions of any of the scripts on the page. You can disable that in Options - General, or if you're comfortable in about:config, you can restrict it to just the active tab.
