Giving you the benefit of the doubt, I’ll go back to the point: you are incorrect, Nesivos. FSS does scan scripts, if you are to believe your eyes. Check the File System Shield settings. As mentioned previously (in the posts above), there is a FSS setting for just this, which is auto selected…hence why I posted in the first place.
Second, It was pretty clear I didn’t mean that NoScript blocked local scripts. It was quite clear that NoScript is used for blocking potential threats within Firefox. But Web shield also works with Firefox, and scans for threats, so I think the web facing stuff is pretty much taken care off there. Now back to local, which was what I was asking questions about…
So the point you make: the only basis left now for keeping Script Shield running, you say, is to protect from supposed threats from running local scripts via wscript.exe or cscript.exe. Hmm, maybe, but vbs and others aren’t directly associated with WSH on my system, so can’t run unless I do it manually. So probably not a really bid deal for me. Maybe it is for others. My choice is to leave SS uninstalled for the good it does. And besides, FSS’s default script scanning option is already checked.
