In addition to add-ons such as NoScript, take a look at the settings in Preferences->Privacy&Security in Firefox. These sites want to pull in scripts from dozens of sites as well as setting trackers and storing cookies and site data on your machine. They usually work ok without most of it but there's often some they just can't live without. It's inconceivable to the Web designers that you might want to simply read the text. They're certain that you need an "enhanced user experience". -- John Hasler jhas...@newsguy.com Elmwood, WI USA
