Are you kidding me? I am not mad that you auto update every Firefox for normal Users but after I heard that NoScript isnt working on FF57 I checked in the settings: Do not search for updates! AND: Do not auto Install updates. I wake up, open the browser and he tells me that it updated!

I dont care which FFversion I have as long as NoScript is working. Its like you force people to get viruses.

Hi  !

I totally understand your frustration, but : did you also uncheck :

'Use a background service to install updates'  ? (Just to make sure)

I had unchecked that option. Installed now the 56.02 version and everything is okay. Just curious if NoScript just needs time to adjust their program or if this was a conscious decision to not support/allow this kind of programs?

Very kind of you to mark my post as 'Chosen Solution', but as I didn't solve your problem : would you be a dear and remove that mark  ?
