Noscript started blocking craigslist links

Noscript just started giving me errors and preventing me from opening links normally or in a new tab, I'm guessing it's a conflict with ""Craigslist image prefetcher" add-on (links are working fine other sites). NS and this add-on have always worked well together until some recent change. Here's what was in the console, maybe someone can give a tip on how to get them working together?
Noscript filtered a potential cross-site scripting (XXS) attempt from (
http://sfbay.craigslist.org). Technical details have been logged to the console

I can't reproduce that even after clicking a number of links @ that site, though I don't have any such add-on.
Is that add-on an official Mozilla add-on? There was nothing called "Craiglist image prefetcher", although some had reference to Craigslist, and others, to image fetching/previewing.
Please give the exact name of the add-on, and if it didn't come from
Firefox Add-ons, please note that it is risky to use such add-ons, in general.
If it's something produced by Craigslist themselves, that makes it even more difficult.
Thank you.

I'm having the same problem. "Craigslist Image Prefetcher" was an official Firefox Add-on, but I don't see it listed in the Add-on library any longer. The feature is very convenient to preview Craigslist postings and pictures, but when I click on the posting, I receive a 404 error. The URL prefix is changed to "
http://clcache.info/df..."

Confirming my previous post, that the add-on is no longer supported, nor even exists at
Firefox Add-ons. Which would explain the problems.
Including the error message that NS balked at access to an add-on that may have been revoked by Mozilla under their add-on safety policies.
There were a couple of other add-ons with Craigslist in the name, such as "Craigslist Peek". I know nothing about them, but both of you could look into that or the others.
