I am a newcomer to Firefox and gradually learning to handle NoScripts. My apologies if this is posted in wrong forum.
Today I received for the first time a Clear Click warning window when I tried to enter some information on a web site. By clicking the image I was able to see the hidden button which was acceptable to me.
Clicking OK on the ClearClick warning window closed that window but as soon as I tried again to enter information on the web site the warning window re-appeared.
The ClearClick warning window several options viz:
1. Keep this element locked (recommended)
2. Clear Click protection on pages
3. OK
4. Report
5. More information
I shall be grateful for any guidance on the effect of clicking each of these options and how they should be used.

Re: ClearClick -Warning window
- If this is a one-shot interaction with this site, you can just uncheck "Keep this element blocked".
You won't be warned again for this specific object until you close the browser. - Otherwise, if this is a site you often visit (say http://www.mybank.com), you may want to open about:config and add "*.mybank.com" to the noscript.clearClick.exceptions preference.
- Finally, if you have this false positive problem on many sites you use often, and you find #2 too much tedious, you can uncheck the "ClearClick protection... on trusted pages" box. You will still be protected against Clickjacking when on sites which are not in your whitelist.
