When I click on a link inside a web page that I trust, that I have given temporary allow all to, nothing happens. Even allowing scripts globally does absolutely no good. There is absolutely no malware whatsoever on my system, in fact I have been complemented by HP, when I have sent it to them to be repaired, how well I keep it. What the hell is going on?

I just tried them all, & they work for me. (I think you've got to do better then that.)

Start FF in Safe Mode, re-enable only NoScript & see if they work.
Let us know.

Ok you want a list, here it is. gmail, facebook, yahoo, meebo, and windows live mail. I'll break it down for you.
When I try to access my gmail in a browser the page doesn't load correctly, I get an error message that says most of gmails features could not load, and that happens if I can get it to open correctly at all. Usually all I end up with is an almost blank screen. On the bottom of the screen is a list of options to reload, restart my browser or to load in an older version of gmail, basic html, and my favorite is when a small box with scroll bars opens at the top right 1/8 of the browser tab with gmail cannot load.
Facebook, the only thing I can click on is to move between the live feed and news feed. Oh occasionally I can click on the home button.
Yahoo, when checking email or proceeding to a page that is continued, nothing else will work.
Meebo, while this is a chat client, when I try to initiate a video session or to turn on my microphone or any of the other options in a chat window nothing happens.
Windows Live Mail, is only there to look at. I cannot select a message other than the one that is on the top of the list.

Looks like something is preventing your permissions from being appied.
Have you got the "Policy Manager" add-on, perhaps? If so, you should uninstall it.
Otherwise, could you try using NoScript Options|Reset, then reallowing the sites which don't work?
If that doesn't help yet, could you try Standard Diagnostic?

OK, that helps.

If you disable NoScript, do you still have the problems?

Did you give Safe Mode a shot?

Try this, Corrupt extension files.

I think I fixed it so far the pages are now working. In options, advanced, trusted sites, there is a box that says "Allow local links", that box was not checked. I turned it on and now things seem to be working. FYI, this may be a bug that happens every fifty thousandths of a time, so you may want to include this in future postings. I have this tendency to make these kinds of things happen that baffle even the best of them. Don't ask me how it's just a way I have. It probably comes from when I was in high school learning systems design I was able to make an IBM System 34 do things no one else could.
