On-line safety - Firefox and NoScript

If you've been a client of Cavu Networks then you have been told that running Firefox as your primary Internet browser is preferred. There is a terrific Firefox Extension called NoScript that makes it even safer and is highly, highly recommended.

The NoScript Firefox extension provides extra protection for Firefox. This free, open source add-on stops potentially dangerous scripts and applets (JavaScript, Java, Flash and other plugins) from being run. NoScript also provides the most powerful Anti-Cross Site Scripting (XSS) protection available in a browser.

You can download and install NoScript here: http://noscript.net/. You can enable JavaScript, Java and plugin execution for sites you trust with a simple left-click on the NoScript status bar icon. There is also a good video called "Using NoScript" on YouTube which describes how to use NoScript which was contributed by John Wilkerson.
