Publisher's Description
From InformAction:
NoScript provides extra protection for your Mozilla, Firefox, or Flock browser. This extension allows JavaScript and Java execution only for trusted domains of your choice. This white list based pre-emptive script blocking approach prevents exploitation of security vulnerabilities with no loss of functionality. You can enable JavaScript or Java execution for sites you trust with a simple left-click on the NoScript status bar icon or using the context menu in pop-up status bar.
What's new in this version: Version 2.6.5.9 has fixed outlook.com UI broken in nightly by work-around.

"Incredibly Useful"
Version: NoScript 2.6.1
Pros
Stops unwanted scripts from running. You can allow scripts to run for trusted sites, while blocking scripts from others.
Cons
The only con I've seen is that sometimes, opening the browser opens the no script page in another tab. I think it's just asking to donate to support the developers. Because it's free. And since it's free, I'll get over it. Oh, and it might frustrate non-tech users browsing the internet. But, it's usually for your computer's own good.
Summary
NoScript is awesome. I have experience removing viruses from computers, returning everything back to normal after someone goes to a random website that automatically slips a virus onto the system. If it happened to me now, I could probably fix it. But, I'd rather not have to. And now I really don't have to. Because I have NoScript.
I have been using my computer with NoScript for about a year and a half. I have gone to hundreds of different websites that I would not normally trust. But since I have NoScript, I really don't have to worry. All of the random ads and trashy spam on the sides is just disabled. I have not had one single virus ever since I've installed NoScript. And that is quite awesome in my opinion.
I don't have anything bad to say, really. If you have people using your computer that may go on questionable sites (despite the fact that you ask, "please don't go on random websites"), you'll do yourself a favor by installing NoScript. -
"SNEEKY ACTIVTY"
Version: NoScript 2.3.8
Pros
Works well stopping script.
Cons
Noscript bypassed Firefox global settings for "NO Updates". I chose to not allow any plugins to automatically update. Then today, I learned that Noscript had bypassed/ignored that option. I had to manually set Noscript for no auto updates, by going to its Plugin window and checking the box for no auto updates.
Summary
I never allow updates because this is another way for software to send personal info to outside locations, so I think this issue should be addressed.

"Blocks tons, easy to use, nags you to donate"
Version: NoScript 2.1.2.8
Pros
Easy to block/unblock sites
Cons
Not easy to figure out what blocked site is preventing stuff from being displayed. Also, it periodically nags you to donate by opening up the developers webpage.
No version for Chrome yet.Summary
If you want to take the "napalm" approach and block most stuff (i.e. spend more time allowing stuff) this is for you.
As an example - it blocks ConsumerReports!

"Blocks everything! Perfect addon, won't slow u down A+"
Version: NoScript 2.1.2.7
Pros
Doesn't slow system. Works almost perfectly, always. Prob better for people used to computers, rather than first-timers. Also, keeps all youtube-type vids from infecting u.
Cons
Spend too much time "temporarily allowing" a lot of things. A control panel to streamline would be great.
Not that big of a deal, tho.
No real consSummary
Get it. Get it. Get it.

"Simple amazing."
Version: NoScript 2.1.0.5
Pros
Everything about this is a pro. It blocks all scripts and I mean ALL scripts from running on your computer. No more hidden key loggers/viruses/worms.
Cons
None that I can think of.
Summary
Great tool for the more advanced who understand and want to stop unwanted background scripts from running while they are using Firefox.

"One of my favorite add-ons for Firefox"
Version: NoScript 2.1.0.1
Pros
*easy to chose the script that you want to run.
*Free
* Can change your mind about the scrips that you chose to run
* Adds a little more security to the Firefox browserCons
* It can be confusing to figure out the scripts that are needed to make the site to work right.
* This does not work on Chrome or IE9.Summary
This has to be the 1st add-on that I have ever install on Firefox. The way that you can chose the script that run for a web-page is easy.
It is matter of trial and error to figure out the scripts that are needed to get any site to work right.
This also help protect you from XSS based attacks. -
"A Great Ad-On for Firefox"
Version: NoScript 2.0.5.1
Pros
*Allows control (Block or allowed) of script on a site
*Free
* Blocks XSS and JAR based attacks
*The sites trying to run the script are well markedCons
* Can be confusing for users who do not know what scripts to allow
* It is not available for any other browser. Other then Firefox based.
* It does get confusing at times to figure out what script to allowSummary
This is a great ad-on for people who want to control the if script is allow to run or not. This makes it easier to do so without disabling script in Firefox.
I would like to see this ad-on to be usable with other web-browsers that are not based on Firefox. -
"Safety at a Price"
Version: NoScript 1.9.9.69
Pros
Blocks many possible security holes in browser, also small protection from xss after whitelisting a site,
Cons
Slows down browsing, breaks webpages, can't turn off w/o uninstall.
Summary
I love this add-on, but I also know that I'm overly security-conscious by most peoples line of thinking. You are safer with this, as it blocks the most exploited browser extensions/plug-ins. But many will feel......claustrophobic?.....nearly every site you visit will have limited interactive function, requiring that you either allow the whole page or parts of it, thereby exposing yourself to the same risks as if you didn't have Noscript anyway. What I like above all else is it gives me the power to choose. At least if you get hacked/infected with this add-on, after allowing a site, the person to blame is right in the mirror, instead of some non-extradition country. If you are impatient or insist on the richest web experience per/min possible, run away from this add-on.
