Where does Firefox save the whitelisted script dialogs?

Hi!

Some sites have javascripts that require user confirmation to execute itself. Something like this "Are you really want to delete?" This appears in a popup window. And there is check box on that window like this: "Don't show again". I checked it and all is OK, but now I wonder, where does Firefox store the list of such whitelisted scripts? In the settings I didn't find it and in about:config too.

So, appreciate for any advice.

Such a setting is probably stored in one of the caches that Firefox uses and a reload with bypassing the cache (Ctrl+F5) should show this alert once again.
