- Rated 5 out of 5by Smiling Fox, 7 years agoEdit 03/2022: People are ridiculous, giving 1-star reviews just because the design changed a bit. NoScript works perfectly and that is what should count most.
Previous review:
Calm down people I know this is hard but no reason to give out 1-star reviews. There will be an update soon the developer was always on top of things in the past. - Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 13209211, 7 years agoThe new version is almost useless. Many sites won't work properly even with all allowed. The NoScript menu seems to only show a few of the scripts the page has so I am unable to allow all needed scripts. Even allow globally doesn't help. Had to disable the app completely. Please make a better version, I like the app and have been using it for years.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13535841, 7 years agoLast update has broken NoScript. Completely trusted sites still have blocked items which disable the visited sites.
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 13535747, 7 years agoThe latest update (28th of November) blocks too many scripts. For example, I can't load images on Google even if the site is flagged as "trusted". By disabling Noscript everything works fine.
Please fix the issue. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13535502, 7 years ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by ankspo71, 7 years agoReview for noscript 10.1.3c1
After fiddling with noscript for a while, I see that noscipt is working for me , and I am beginning to like the new UI, but there are some issues with unexpected behavior.
For instance, if I create a rule to allow an insecure connection to wired.com, and then reload the page, my selection will seem to disappear (or revert), but in reality my selection is not shown because there is no insecure connection to wired.com so the site remains blocked. It is unexpected to see the rule disappear and block the page and might cause people to think it doesn't work. I also assumed that my insecure rule would automatically allow a secure connection. EDIT: This problem has been fixed with a recent update. Thanks
Also a smaller issue is globally allowing scripts only shows top level domain allowed, instead of showing all allowed domains, similar to how "temporary allow all this page" shows all domains.
Overall I think Giorgio has done good work so far at rewriting noscript, but I think it needs a little more polishing. - Rated 5 out of 5by Francewhoa, 7 years agoThe good
• Edward Snowden endorses NoScript as a countermeasure against mass state surveillance he exposed. Read more at http://securitywatch.pcmag.com/security/321511-snowden-to-sxsw-here-s-how-to-keep-the-nsa-out-of-your-stuff

• NoScript allows you to permit which sites and add-ons you really trust to run scripts or track you
• Easier to detect and remove adware
• Also works as ads blocker
• Often significantly speeds up page load and save computer resources. Because unwanted scripts are block. Thus they don't need to load and run.
• NoScript is owned, developed, and supported by a friendly community
The bad
• Initial learning curve. But pass that it is easy to use. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13534115, 7 years agoDass sich die Oberfläche geändert hat ist ok. Ich komme damit gut zurecht mit meinen 79 Jahren. Den Meckerköppen sei mal gesagt, das Sie das nicht zu würdigen wissen, in der kurzen Zeit dass Programm an die neue Version von Firefox anzupassen. Herzlichen Dank an Giorgio.

- Rated 2 out of 5by Ferhat, 7 years agoThe new interface is horrible. Why did you change it that bad?
Somehow the functionality is even behaving sometimes very strange. - Rated 5 out of 5by oldme, 7 years agoThank You for all your hard work for providing us with this excellent NoScript Security Suite web extension & for your ongoing regular updates as with the previous build. I have no problems whatsoever with the UI, it works fine for me ( 77yr old ). I just do not see why there are so many moaners & ungrateful people.
Once again Thank You for an excellent web extension. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12548830, 7 years agoThis gets five stars because i know where it's going :)
Speaking of which, enabling scripts globally literally enables all scripts, including those manually marked as untrusted. This can't be expected behaviour, right, GIorgio? :) - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13532626, 7 years agoBig thanks to the developer for the hard work on this excellent add-on, the new UI is definitely getting there. Keep up the good work, ignore the naysayers - some people need to remember that change is the only constant.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13513265, 7 years agoI don't understand the postings with only one *.
***** NoScript (v10.1.3c1) is working fine *****
The UI has been extended. The functionality is the same as in the old one - only the display is bigger showing more information.
Even more you can get a list of your settings for websites now.
Users grumbling about the new NoScript should first update their addon and spend some time with it.
Thank You Giorgio for bringing NoScript to a new level. :-)) - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13469740, 7 years agoSeen couple of negative comments & 1-star rating for the extension. The developer was maintaining this wonderful extension for last couple of years. The developer of this extension asks that you help support its continued development by making a small contribution. At that time how many of you, those are giving poor ratings, bothered to donate the developer for this extension? It’s Mozilla & not the developer who had ruined the browser. If you are not happy with this extension, then move on to some other browser or older version of FF (ESR). I uninstalled FF 57 & went back to ESR only for this extension. Can’t use any other browser & without this extension, it’s impossible to use FF. On ESR, old version 5.1.7 is working perfectly fine.
Giorgio Maone, please ignore all the negative comments in review section. Will it be possible for you to maintain old version 5.1.7 for ESR till June 2018? Thank you for the support of this wonderful extension till today. - Rated 1 out of 5by Kawzen, 7 years ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13528704, 7 years agoWell, obviously the security aspect of the new version is good, but I gotta say that it seems hard (and uncertain) on how to do a TEMPORARILY ALLOW DOMAIN in the new version. The TEMPORARILY ALLOW is what I use almost exclusively (when needed) to deal with things I don't want to grant permanent permission to. (Yes, I know you know this).
I just find it too hard to get to it. It took me a while to realize the teeny-tiny watch-face symbol was used for that, but even more unclear was that I actually had to click on the clock itself. Can you make the TEMPORARY feature easier to recognize and access?

For now, down to 4 stars, instead of the usual 5
