I'd much prefer to have the option to suppress each website specifically as opposed to having to disable Noscript's functions upon every instance so that I may view the java scripts.

Or am I being too neurotic about "allow scripts globally (dangerous)"?

Oh sorry I now see the box "forbid java/flash" and unchecked it so I have no problems now.

Still new to this.

ATTENTION!!

Everyone using FF w/adblock plus, do not adblock out the "BevsDeals" logo at the top of your screen. If you do you will lose all buttons and functions (for FG only) and it will adblock the ForumGarden logo as well.

If you've already done it -- click on the "AB" red stopsign symbol on the top right of your browser>click preferences>look for forumgarden somewhere near the top of the list in the window>uncheck the box for forumgarden>click apply at the very bottom (you'll need to scroll a bit)>close out of the adblock window and refresh your screen. You should be fine now, if not use the "contact us" button at the bottom of the page to contact TS and he can either help or can contact one of us adblock users for assistance.

Left click the little "S" on the bottom right corner of your window and then left click "options". Under "embeddings" uncheck the boxes you wish to see for instance "Forbid Java", "Forbid Flash" etc...etc...

This should take care of your problem. I unchecked the first 4 options personally.

Thanks Kev ! I'll try that

to remove noscript go to "tools" at the top of your browser>choose add-ons>a box should open up>scroll through untill you get to noscript>click button to uninstall. That should do it You may be able to just right click on the noscript symbol at the bottom and look in that little menu that pops up (perhaps preferences) and turn it off or uninstall that way.

After you've gotten that done, let us know and we'll help you install adblock.

Woohooooooo ! Done it RJ, and thanks very much ! :-4 I've got my Youtube back yippeeeeeee ! Gawd, I was getting withdrawal symptoms, because I find Youtube fascinating, and the music that can be found on there is amazing, particularly when played through my sound system, or my headphones ! :guitarist :-6

Now then, how to install adblock plus, but will I have problems with Youtube or Photobucket etc. with that installed ? Bearing in mind that I use Mozilla Firefox, and I use Norton Security. Anything else I need to tell you, that might affect this particular ad-on ?

:DYou should not have any problems with youtube or photobucket or anything with adblock. But if you're not having any issues currently with intrusive ads perhaps its best to leave well enough alone. However, if you'd like to get rid of the ads go here to add adblock plus to firefox. after it installs you should get an "easylist" subscription page> click yours (the default is usually correct)> restart FF and your done.

Anytime ads are not blocked automatically simply right click on the ad and chose "adblock image" from the menu.

Let me know if you need any help.

I've left downloading ad-block plus, for the moment, as things seem to be OK - I do have an ad blocker of sorts which seems to work quite well for me. Thanks very much for your help, RJ, it is much appreciated !

Apparently not, though it seemed a better guess than accidental when I made it.

The issue of costs still applies to advertising in general though.

Spock !

Mr. Tombstone is a very busy man.

He has the weight of the world on his shoulders just now with Iran and its nuclear facilities crisis, the war in Afghanistan, finding cures for horrible diseases and not to mention his duties at the soup kitchen.

Hes doing his best to make a nice home for you here at FG. Perhaps we can muster up some patience concerning a minor glitch with forum software.

Hes a saint and you would do well to learn from him.

I expect Ill be seeing him over Christmas dinner and if I have an opportunity Ill mention your concerns.

Good Day Sir.
