Hi guys,

from the change log :

DNS activity logging facility (disabled by default)

can't find the setting for this nor where the log should appear...thanks

edit: OK, found it in about:config

The log appears inside your profile, as noscript_dns.log. The about:config preference, as you found, is noscript.logDNS.
However, this is exclusively a diagnostic feature so you shouldn't enable it unless you really have a good reason to, because it will surely slow down your browsing to a certain extent.

I know thanks, I edited my first post, found the setting and the log file too ...anyway good to know why this is disabled by default.

and what's the noscript.proxiedDNS setting for ?

just to mention: I just posted twice as "guest" without being aware of it, I didn't know why I had to enter the captcha letters that's because I restarted FF twice after changing the settings in about:config and I was logged out here, sorry about that.

It says how NoScript behaves regarding DNS query for proxied connections.
It should be left as it his, making NoScript perform DNS resolutions only if connection is not proxied.

OK thanks
