Steps to simulate:
Browser - mozilla dev. release ( minefield v38, and aurora v37) - ftp://archive.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/
- create new clear profile
- install noScript (last v2.6.9.11)
- open youtube url https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FQB42ljf50g (on this the test was made)
-> the browser freezes - doesn't respond.


on ff 36(beta) and ff 35 - the ff doesn't freeze.

do you have e10s enabled in both browser where it freezes?
if so, noscript isn't expected to work with e10s yet (not until noscript 3), see https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1058542

e10s is disabled. i don't use this - because some addons doesn't work.

i found that in ff 36 https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox/Releases/36
> The "const" declaration is now block-scoped and requires an initializer
and i found that NoScript sources uses "const" ..
the bug was in win2003 x64.
but this is not reproduced in XP.

To be clear, you're saying that win2003 x64 is affected but XP is not?

"To be clear, you're saying that win2003 x64 is affected but XP is not?" - yes.

i found that - after disable "embeddings -> forbid <audio>/<video>" - the ff doesn't freeze (win2003 x64, ff dev release[aurora/nightly])
