'Hi Heffe, I hear all the time what you and a couple other guys are saying here, "NoScripts breaks too many pages". In all honesty and I mean honestly, I just don't feel it at all. I mean I go to all kind of sites, same sites all the time but the list of bookmarks gets bigger and bigger and I don't have any site that I cant take care of by temporarily allowing scripts.
People also complain about white listing sites like if it was something that you have to be constantly messing around with. Personally, I only have eight sites that I white list. Last time that I changed something in that list was one year ago when Megaupload was killed. After Mega disappeared, I took it off my tiny white list.
Using NoScript makes sense, it should make sense to people that come to security forums. I mean, anytime we read something about it (security wise), it is positive and experts are always recommending it.
I started using NoScript about four years ago, right at about the same time that I discovered SBIE. I didn't understand it at first, I mean it took some time to learn how things work but eventually everything started to make sense. I took a no nonsense approach about it and it worked.
Alike Sandboxie, I learn something new every other day about NoScript. I don't see that as "the program being difficult" but as the program being exciting as their is something new to be discovered and learned every so often. I wouldn't change my NoScript for any combination of the paid security programs that we talk about here. Thats how I feel about this wonderful program.
Breaking pages, no, not for me, actually (the way I see it), it cleans pages of disturbing and annoying stuff. I can focus better in what I am doing.'
