"goggles" bookmarklet, dslreports.com and noscript

Hi,
I have recently been playing around with the "goggles" bookmarklet (http://goggles.sneakygcr.net/) and have come across some rather strange behaviour, but only on 1 page so far, namely http://www.dslreports.com/forum/security (i have not checked other pages on dslreports, but i suspect it would be the entire forums that is affected)

I don't have sneakygcr in my white-list, so in the normal case I have to temporarily allow it each time I use the bookmarklet, and from then on both the bookmarklet and noscript work as expected.
However at http://www.dslreports.com/forum/security using the bookmarklet causes all open tabs to freeze (red x at the top right remains responsive), and also sets noscript to "Allow scripts globally" at the same time - hence my posting here.

the contents of the bookmarklet are

Code: Select all

javascript:%20(function%20()%20{if%20(window.goggles%20&&%20window.goggles.active)%20{window.goggles.stop();}%20else%20{window.GOGGLE_SERVER='http://goggles.sneakygcr.net/page';var%20scr%20=%20document.createElement('script');scr.type%20=%20'text/javascript';scr.src%20=%20'http://goggles.sneakygcr.net/bookmarklet.js?rand='+Math.random();document.documentElement.appendChild(scr);}})();
if that is any help

firefox 3.6.15
noscript 2.0.9.9
