UA Parsing Is Incorrect - Firefox + NoScript add-on #274

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
Maybe separate the Firefox 3.6 security results into people who have NoScript 
and those who do not; although this is not possible with basic UA parsing.

Trying to detect plugins/extensions is a rathole of pain. I'm going to just 
hope that medians and lots of tests will solve for this problem. Do you see a 
problem with any of the overall scores?

There is a significant difference in the security rating between Firefox plain 
and Firefox + NoScript from what I can tell. Just wondered if you had noticed 
it.  Median may be okay, although being linked to from the NoScript site may 
influence the median up for NoScript rather than across the actual population.

"This features lets Firefox 4 + NoScript (in "Allow Scripts Globally" mode!) 
achieve a 14/16 score on Browserscope's Security Test. " (where your site is 
hyperlinked)

Thanks.
