Re: Do you enable javascript in Firefox?

No, I use the NoScript extension to selectively whitelist web sites.

Yes. I don't think the level of security noscript provided (minimal) was worth the hassle. Not to mention you were still vulnerable through any sites you whitelisted. I use flashblock, though. Flash can be annoying as hell.

Yes, but I do use Adblock, so if Javascript is in an ad (I don't even know if people are doing that) I won't see it. Generally, if a site is built with Javascript, I want it to work.

I don't use firefox at the moment but epiphany, but javascript can be usefull so I have it enabled. I run a popup blocker though, so I assume not all javascript is enabled.

I don't, actually.  If a site doesn't work with javascript off, then it's a real shitty site.  Still, with NoScript, it's one click to say "turn on".

+filter{js-annoyances} in privoxy. Does not turn off javascript completely but stops most abuse.

Re: Do you enable javascript in Firefox?

Yes. But in the advanced settings, only "Disable or replace context menus" is checked.
