>>Thank you and Viv for helping me understand the issue. I have never used to setting NoScript (even though I use FireFox) and will have to look for this setting. But is there a downside to setting this the browser to NoScript?

You have to actively whitelist (approve) this content on sites. You can do this either temporarily (while your FireFox session is active) or permanently. I have *very* few sites permanently whitelisted.

Blocking scripting etc. on sites you don't explicitly trust just makes tremendous sense. You're automatically protected from any zero-day attacks that make use of any of these vectors.

Sorry to bother you on the topic of NoScript but maybe you could help. I have installed the NoScript and in the beginning I was able to select a text on the blogs where I used to not be able. But later things have changes. I probably clicked to allow some scripts on these sites and I no longer can select a text. The message I see is "Scripts partially allowed 6/8 .." . Do you know if there is a way to see which scrips are allowed on this blog and remove them from allowed?

UPDATE: I found the way to deal with it. I simply selected to Forbid the Blogspot and it seem to solved the issue.
