ScriptNo is a plugin similar to “NoScript” from Firefox.

About ScriptNo

TMkbn.png


A simple extension that brings some of NoScript's functionality to Chrome while emphasizing simplicity and intuitiveness (no affiliation to NoScript):

-whitelisting/blacklisting functionality and granular control
-actually speeds up browsing because it removes a lot of unwanted content
-ability to remove SCRIPT,OBJET, EMBeD IFRAME , FRAME, APPLE , AUDIO, VIDEO,NOSCRIPT and IMG elements, as well as webbugs
-ability to block unwanted content (MVPS HOSTS, hpHOSTS (ad / tracking servers only), Peter Lowe's HOSTS Project, MalwareDomainList.com, and DNS-BH – Malware Domain Blocklist are integrated!)
-ability to block click-through referrer data
-"intuitive" icon that changes based on whether or not a page is whitelisted/blacklisted/bypassed
-shows number of blocked/removed items in toolbar
-shows blocked/allowed items in tab details popup (along with item type)
-bulk import domains into whitelist and blacklist
-option to temporarily allow a page/temporarily allow all blocked items
-choose the default mode (Block All or Allow All)
-option to preserve same-domain elements
-option to disable automatic refresh of pages after whitelisting/blacklisting/temp. bypassing a page

Credits to NotScripts for some of the key functionality and inspiration.



Options Page:

  • Enable: pretty straightforward; dictates whether or not ScriptNo is enabled
  • Default Mode: Block or Allow sites that you haven’t whitelisted or blacklisted (best-practice: if you decide to be brave and select Allow, I recommend ticking “Block Unwanted Content“; otherwise I’d recommend setting Default Mode to “Block“)
  • Disable and Remove: straightforward; tick the elements you want to block and remove
  • Block Unwanted Content: removes resources/elements from domains that are associated with spam, phishing, malware, and/or ads. Integrates MVPS HOSTS, hpHOSTS (ad / tracking servers), Peter Lowe’s HOSTS Project, and MalwareDomainList.com, DNS-BH – Malware Domain Blocklist.
  • Unwanted Content Mode: you get to choose “Relaxed” or “Strict“:
    • Relaxed: unwanted content will be blocked unless you have added the domain to your whitelist. In this mode, you will also be able to see the Whitelist/Blacklist/Bypass buttons in the tab options popup for domains that are in the unwanted content domains list. Note that these domains will differ from other domains by having “Blocked” instead of “Deny“.
    • Strict: unwanted will be blocked even if whitelisted. In the tab options popup, you will not see the Whitelist/Blacklist/Bypass buttons for blocked domains that are classified as unwanted content providers.
    Antisocial Mode: social widgets/buttons (e.g. Facebook Likes) will be removed, even if the domain has been whitelisted.
  • Remove Webbugs: removes “invisible” external, non-whitelisted iframe, embed, object, and img elements on sites
  • Block Click-Through Referrer: prevents your browser from sending referrer information when clicking on external, non-whitelisted sites (adds the rel=”noreferrer” attribute to links that match the criteria of being external and non-whitelisted)
  • Page Link Opening Behaviour: here you can set how links on a page will always open (unchanged; same tab; new tab).
  • Respect Same-Domain: always allow same-domain elements and resources
    Auto-Refresh Page: ticking this will automatically refresh the page you’re on after you’ve changed the settings for the page in the tab options popup (which is detailed in the next section)
  • Show Rating Button: adds a “Rating” button to the tab options popup, where if clicked, you will be brought to the Web of Trust page for the domain
  • Classic Options Mode: if this is ticked, once a change has been made in the tab options popup (below), the tab options popup will close automatically




Tab Options Popup:

  • Allow: adds the respective domain to the whitelist (will whitelist the domain only (e.g. forums.domain.com, NOT *.domain.com)
  • Trust: adds the entire top-level domain to the whitelist (*.domain.com)
  • Deny: adds the domain at question to the whitelist
  • Clear: removes the domain at question from the whitelist/blacklist
  • Temp.: temporarily bypasses/blocks the domain for the rest of the browser session (until the browser is closed or if you click on Temp. again to toggle the setting)
  • Allow All Blocked For Session (if Default Mode is “Block”) / Block All Allowed For Session (if Default Mode is “Allow”): temporarily bypasses/blocks all blocked/allowed domains for the rest of the browser session (until the browser is closed or if you click on Bypass / Temp. Block again for each individual domain to toggle the setting)
  • Rating: if this button is clicked, you will be brought to the Web of Trust page for the domain at question where you can discern whether or not to block/allow the domain (if needed)
Features:
  • number of blocked elements/resources shown in icon
  • hover over a line item to see what elements have been blocked for that domain
  • shows version number in the bottom-right corner
  • quick links to this post and Options for ScriptNo
  • if “Always Block Annoyances” is ticked, any blocked resources/elements will not have the usual “Allow/Deny/Bypass” options
  • if you bypass/temp. block a domain which has been whitelisted/blacklisted before, once you “untoggle” it, it will revert back to its original whitelist/blacklist setting
