I'm running NoScript because otherwise Firefox freezes up a lot. Recently I've had difficulty accessing a site. I suspect the reason is that it uses redirection in a way that frustrates my efforts to give it permission. To test the notion, I'm considering temporarily allowing script globally. How hard is it to reverse? Will I need to redo previous permissions one at a time?

The specific claim is "Atlassian Cloud - Unable to Set Session Cookie". Also: "Please make sure your browser has third-party cookies enabled and then try again using the button below. Don't refresh the page."
According to Firefox, I have third-party cookies enabled,

I've been running noscript for years, but the version that showed up a couple-three weeks ago suddenly is really screwed up. I'll go to a page, and want to temporarily want to allow several links, and there's *nothing* to emaible. But if I got to the toolbar, tools, add-ons, disable noscript, then re-enable it, it works again...

No, your saved permissions will not be affected. Just click on "Forbid scripts globally" and you will be right back to where you were before.

Thanks. My notion was correct. Once I got there, I did a "Forbid scripts globally" and an "allow this page".
