Greasemonkey userscript problem?

Post by Guest »

To start I'll say that the functionality of this website is not broken. But there is an ABE message I get when I visit it. It appears to be connected to the a Greasemonkey userscript I am running, videoembed (http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/7686).
When I visit the website 1up.com I get this error first

Code: Select all

Error: Security Manager vetoed action
Source File: file:///C:/Users/username/AppData/Roaming/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles/ar17ev5s.default/gm_scripts/videoembed/videoembed.user.js
Line: 1022
This is connected to the Greasemonkey userscript I mentioned earlier

I also get the following error console message from ABE

Code: Select all

[ABE] <LOCAL> Deny on {GET http://localhost/crossdomain.xml <<< http://www.1up.com/, http://www.1up.com/ - 12}
SYSTEM rule:
Site LOCAL
Accept from LOCAL
Deny
When I disable the userscript I get neither error message

I am just wondering if anyone can better explain what's happening? Also if it helps the Userscript's source code is available here: http://userscripts.org/scripts/review/7686

The Flash movie you start is trying to load resources from localhost, and ABE prevents it from happening.

Would that resource be?

Code: Select all

file:///C:/Users/Me/AppData/Roaming/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles/ar17ev5s.default/gm_scripts/videoembed/videoembed.user.js
Also I was wondering if you could edit my first post to change it from C:/Users/[My name]/ to C:/Users/Me/. I know it's my just first name and it isn't a privacy risk but I would just feel more comfortable if it didn't have my name.

Replaced with "username".
