Hi folks,

The question is download the right xpi. NoScript for Flock is basically the same as for FF 1.5 x, but pending isssues with FF make me use Flock, and I am very happy with Flock, the version after the preview will be launched in the beginning of the new year (Febr.), but I never had trouble even with the nightly builds.

Use NoScript, a limited user account and a virtual machine and be safe(r)!

I don't doubt that, good luck with it.

I and a number of others do have problems with conflict, unfortunately it is very difficult to establish which extensions conflict with or firefox, this was also an issue in previous versions of firefox, noscript and other extensions (although as I have said the only conflict I had was with FlashBlock and NoScript, they simply won't work together). Many won't have a problem if they don't stumble onto the same extensions permutation that would appear to cause the conflict.

Unfortunately for those that do experience a problem the only real way to resolve it is a full uninstall of everything and start with a clean slate. Having reinstalled all extensions without NoScript and everything is running smoothly, so draw your own conclusions.

This is the worst part of Firefox... we can't get rid on the problem without uninstalling everything and installing again.

Just to post, no problems with NoScript and Flock or Firefox 1.5  :)
