NoScript

block Java and Flash in Firefox

NoScript is a Firefox extension that enables you to interactively block Java, JavaScript, Flash and other plug-ins with the click of a button. You can choose to temporary block or allow scripts on the current sites and also allow your trusted sites to be exclude from any blocking action. Whenever you visit a site, all potentially invasive script content is blocked by default, and you can choose to enable it on a per-script basis from the Firefox status bar. The program provides detailed configuration options that allow to choose which type of script content should be blocked, how to notify you and what actions to take. You can also configure a Whitelist of allowed sites, set restrictions for HTTPS pages, prevent Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks and more.
