fx35 profile *always* starts with allow all scripts global

[beetzing]

It's getting very old I cannot handle having to set disallow all scripts no only when firefox starts but whenever I spawn a new window- and sometimes new tabs in a window where I have already set disallow all. This is unacceptable.

UNticking the allow all (unadvised) checkbox in the first page of noscript options was back to the undesirble state after exiting and starting the fx profile

Briefly I had resolved the problem by not storing backups in a bookmark and subsequently deleting the bookrmark. I uninstalled noscript and using about:config reset every pref to default excelt this list of whitelisting- and untrusted domains.

now I cannot whitelist the given tab, it's greyed out in brackets and whitelisting 'current tab' only lasts for a single JS based event on page like chnaging drop down selection or mashing a button.

I have no desire whatsoever to incrementally build up a freash fx profile migrating bits at a time to sort out the problem

now at wits end i have uninstalled noscript completely because it had be so interfering with my functional use

there is no user.js overriding defaults

I have used noscfipt options to export all my settings hoping that wiping all trace of noscript from prefs.js after unintaalll could have sections reimported to a 'new install of nocript'... but I'm spitting vexation at this point and tired of tinkinger.

fx3.6 does not appeal to me with broken extensions
solution not found in faq vhttp://noscript.net/faq
the only plugins I allow enabled is flash


I would very much like the profile start noscript behavior to NOT allow all scripts by default

Easiest things to try, as a test, is to create a new Profile.
Install NoScript (everything should be at defaults).
Verify that it works as expected.

Assuming that works ...

Return to your existing Profile, disable all extensions except for NoScript.
Backup you NoScript settings.
Perform a Reset.
Verify that it works as expected.

Assuming that works ...

Enable your other extensions - either one by one or all at once.
See if anything breaks.


A couple things to watch for: Options | Advanced | HTTPS - Always, & General | Allow sites opened through bookmarks. (Both should be set back to defaults by a Reset in any case.)
If still working, re-import your NoScript settings or reset them to your liking.
See if anything breaks.

If something breaks either when adding the other extensions or when importing your NoScript settings, then you'll have to drill down to try to figure whats causing the breakage.

This is the extension responsible for breaking NoScript.
