[RESOLVED] Disable dropdown on mouseover

I'm wondering if it's possible to disable the dropdown menu from appearing when I hover my pointer over the S! NoScript button. Instead, I would like the dropdown menu to only appear when I click the button.
I'm asking because on numerous occasions, I have accidentally marked a website as untrusted while moving my pointer around that general area. I have the NoScript icon on the top-right corner of my Firefox browser.
I am not a programmer, but I am comfortable editing code if that is what needs to be done to make this change.

Just uncheck NoScript Options>General>Open permissions menu when mouse hovers over NoScript's icon.

Wow, that was so easy! For whatever reason, I never noticed that option before. Thank you for such a fast response.

If you still wanted the dropdown, but did not want the Untrusted, you can do that too.
Options | Appearance -> Mark [...] as Untrusted (uncheck)

Another great piece of advice. Thanks! Is there a way to rearrange the order of the items in the dropdown too?
(Also, how do I mark this thread as resolved? I see some other threads with that label.)

Unfortunately not, the best you can do is put your NoScript icon on the other side of your browser (
which may not work).

Edit your original post, and add "[RESOLVED]" (without quotes) to the beginning of the post subject.
