Untrusted sites?

Post by Colin »

Where does noscript keep the list of untrusted sites, there's no config setting panel which displays what you've stuck in there.

Specific reasons, I cleared my adblock list of all the rules, and rather than resetting noscript's whitelist, would rather just blow the untrusted list to see if that resolves some issues I've encountered.

In your Firefox profile folder, stored in the file prefs.js. Assuming that you're comfortable opening system and program files (you might want to make a backup copy of prefs.js or your entire Firefox profile first, just in case), you can open prefs.js with Wordpad, search "noscript.untrusted" (no quotes), and it'll take you to the list.

Just making sure: We're talking about the sites that you have specifically marked as untrusted, never even allowed to ask for permission nor to show in menu, except by clicking on "untrusted sites", correct? Of course, NoScript by default does not trust any site that is not in your whitelist; from that point of view, all of the rest of the world is "untrusted", not in a list. I think you know this, but to clarify for others who might read the thread.

Or you could load about:config in the url bar and clear noscript.untrusted from there: right-click > Reset. In this case it appears you need to restart Firefox for the change to take effect.

Wasn't entirely sure that OP wanted to empty them all, esp. with ref to Adblock list. Of course your way would do that, but you can't view them quite so easily. I assumed he wanted to vet the list, which would be easier in a text doc than in the single long string as in about:config. So whichever was his goal, there's a method. Thanks for adding the other method.
