Couldn't get the poll to work...
1st checked RequestPolicy... wow what a lot of hangers on at this site... didn't look like any of those though...
Hmm don't use NoScript as I don't trust it.. so, whats left...
Oh yes! ABP with third-party script blocking
(*$script,third-party,domain= ~flickr.com|~youtube.com|~imdb.com).
Turned it off and the poll works - it must need some third-party script :)
Heh ho - at least I know the script blocking works!
tbh with Greasemonkey stripping a site to the bone, sometimes I will surf for a while with ABP turned off by mistake... its surprising how long it takes for me to see an advertisement :D

The cogent reasoning for NoScript distrust is what?
Are you aware of ABE in NoScript?
(you can disable NoScript's ad laden changelog page firing post-update with an extension preference.. also consider un-whitelisting noscript.net)
RequestPolicy + ADP != NoScript
(the combination of those two do *not* replace NoScript functionality)
GreaseMonkey cannot act until the page is rendered: it blocks nothing, but it can hide like Stylish, or you can ease re-arrangement with Platypus.

Not trusting someone who betrayed you is normal behavior.
Quote:
IMPORTANT UPDATE FOR ADBLOCK PLUS USERS_ NoScript 1.9.2.6 automatically and permanently removes the controversial _NoScript Development Support Filterset_, with no questions asked. Not including a prompt asking for permission beforehand from the start has been a very wrong thing to do, and I want all the ABP users who felt betrayed to know how much I'm sorry for that. As a sign of good will, current NoScript 1.9.2.6 completely removes the filterset itself, if found there, on startup with no questions asked. Thanks for your patience. -- Giorgio

1. NoScript quietly added a whitelist subscription to AdBlockPlus to enable supporting ads on the NoScript site. That was sneaky, underhanded and despicable. 2. NoScript _patched the AdBlockPlus code_ to enable supporting ads on the NoScript site. This goes _way_ beyond the pale. One plugin modifying the code of another_ Suddenly, NoScript looks like malware!

RequestPolicy + ABP does the job...
If you use the following....
Details: - For EasyList & EasyPrivacy go here: http://easylist.adblockplus.org/ and add to ABP.
- Add a filter to ABP: "*$script,third-party" to stop third-party script. - More info here: http://adblockplus.org/blog/third-party-javascript-yes-it-is-a-security-risk.
Mine is *$script,third-party,domain= ~flickr.com|~youtube.com|~imdb.com
:D
