Hi! I was upgraded to NS 2.6.8.3 this morning, and I notice that NS is now globally allowing all the sites listed in the NS menu. Before, I had to mark the sites that I wanted to allow; everything else was not allowed by default.

Is this the new default, or have I been hacked? Obviously, I am not a computer geekette, so maybe I am missing something here.

Thanks for your help with this.

No default has changed.
Most likely you accidentally hit the "Allow scripts globally" command.
Just issue a "Forbid scripts globally".

Hi, Giorgio! Thanks so much for your speedy reply. Your suggestion is exactly what happened. I selected "Forbid scripts globally" and all is well again. Whew! Now I feel safer on the 'Net. Thanks again.
