Hi FwF,
This is the main reason that I switched to Flock. Comparing Flock to Firefox, I think as soon as Flock becomes operational as a public version, I will abandon Firefox. I block script on Firefox and Flock, and only allow it for trusted sites, and I like in-browser pre-hyperlink scanning. But people are not aware the real danger lies in remote links offered. For instance people get an e-card, they click the remote link and they are without proper protection against hostile code inside funny gadgets etc. A scenario malware artists and hackers love, pre-scanning links helps you there considerably.
