Based on my very limited use of NoScript this afternoon, I suspect there are very few, if any sites, where NoScript does not flag some things. FoxNews, Gmail, LinkShare and the site of my favorite singer are all run by reputable people. Their sites probably can get something bad. Imagine sites which are not run by reputable people. Navigating with NoScript will be a little slower, but I will try to avoid clicking on "Allow all this page", unless there is some bad effect such as you described on e commerce sites that could result in you getting double billed or your transaction not completing properly. <snip>
