Noscript and tabs mouse responsiveness

Hello there,

I've been using NoScript for a while now and I'm really pleased with the result, but since a few days/weeks I have this annoying problem.

When switching between tabs, the mouse is unresponsive the first 1 or 2 times you click on (a link at) the new page. When disabling NoScript, the problem is gone so it's obvious the addon is causing this problem.

What I've done to get this problem:
- opening pages with the MIDDLE MOUSE button, so a page is opened in a new tab, but the tab is loaded in the "background" and the page isn't visible (only the tab)
- changing to the new tab
- mouse events are ignored the first 1 or 2 times

Does someone else's having this problem too?

Thanks in advance.

Yes, I have tried the latest rc1 build and I tried disabling all other addons, but the problem is still there.

I've made a small movie showing you the problem. I had to click 5 times on the links before the mouse event had been executed!

I really appreciate you try to fix things as quick as possible, but the newly build didn't solve this issue (atleast it didn't for me).

Thanks in advance

Are you double sure you're on 2.1.2.3rc1 (you can check from the "About" item of the NoScript menu)?
Did you restart the browser before trying?
If you did, could you please check on a clean profile with just NoScript installed?

Error Console show anything?
Does this only happen with FF 6?
Does it happen in a clean Profile, with only NoScript installed?
(Any odd Plugins installed, A/V related or the like?)

I'm sorry, I checked and double checked everything, but the problem persists.

- I've created a new profile with firefox.exe -ProfileManager
- I've started firefox with the new profile (looked like a clean install with no extensions installed)
- I disabled all extensions (flash, ..)
- The only plugin I installed was the new

Here's the walkthrough video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rty4Rk3T0ZA

Thanks in advance. I'm just trying to help :)
