Not fully compatible with FF 4. Requires the use of the "Add On Bar" and has no option for being placed in the "Navigation Toolbar".
From author: "While YesScript goes into the add-on bar by default, you can customize it like any other toolbar button. Just go View, Toolbars, Customize, then you can drag it to wherever you like."
Yep. I stand corrected.

Excellent!
The icon in statusbar is too small.
HotKey is requested.
keyconfig:
yesScriptBrowserOverlay.toggle();
does not work

(This is in response to the my previous review which contained nothing.)
This is an excellent addon for blocking Google Instant.
In regards to NoScript, this is easier to use but doesn't provide the security features (e.g. anti-clickjacking, anti-XSS, etc.) that Noscript does.

I completely disagree with David, below... NoScript is not in any way easy to use, especially considering that it blocks more than scripts and setting it up as blacklist is complicated.
I have however run into a problem with YesScript. Running in 3.6 in Private Browsing mode, if I disable or even uninstall YesScript, the blacklist continues to function and block JS on those sites.

Fantastic. This is exactly what I was looking for.

Why rules like "http://*.mozilla.org" doesn't work? It's very inconvenient.

Yesscript is a "too little, too late" addon. Noscript is MUCH easier to use and, unlike what the devs of this addon claim, does not force you to embrace paranoia. You can do the same thing with Noscript as Yesscript just by allowing all scripts and then blocking the ones you don't want to deal with. Simply rightclick the page and choose what you want to block vs all the extra steps you have to take if you use Yesscript instead. I think the devs fail to understand the KISS principle.

I still like this YesScript. But I've been trying to make it behave in a way that it would not need the http:// in each blocker it makes. I would've to make it work on the domain instead. Is there a way to do it?
Peace

I don't understand why some people review when they clearly don't understand what they were writing.
Some of them mention "AdBlocker". Which "AdBlocker" are they talking about. Give the exact name! Adblock Plus doesn't block javascript, but I use it to block java applets, images and url. I think this will work very well with Adblock Plus. If you guys know of better solutions, by all means, list them here!
And then there are those who mention noscript. After configurating "noscript" for the most of one day (burned/wasted me one Saturday), I still cannot get it to work like yesscript. And it still need to be fine tuned from time to time...
YesScript suits my need at the moment. I would like a shortcut to the blacklist on the icon though.

Excellent : juste ce qu'il faut , très simple et efficace; certains sites qui me bloquaient complètement ne posent plus problème.

I've spent days looking for something ( maybe an add-on )
to block < Script> tags found at certain URLs ( not domains ).
I love the new Google Images, but I don't want JavaScript to run in certain instances:
"google.TLD\images?" yes, "google.TLD\imgRES?" no.
FireFox's "Polices", YesScript and NoScript can't wildcard URLs,
they're confined to domains.
AdBlocker blocks (wildcarded) URLs from loading, but I want the page to load,
...to load without running the ****ing < Script> tags in it.
GreasMonkey runs AFTER the < Script> tags have done their thing,
so that's no good, and no one seems to care.
The greaseMonkey crowd says "AdBlocker" is all that's needed, nothing more.

NoScript is too Annoying And Over-the-top.
It was love at first sight with YesScript.
Yes, It needs Wildcards, But I am sure the dev will get to that.
Thanks for creating Such an Easy to use, Light and Functional Add-on!

I was having trouble on Facebook, receiving the Warning:nonresponsive script error message. Instructions said to install YesScript but, I then I could not send messages, view or open messages or make posts in Facebook. I uninstalled YesScript but now, Facebook still does not work. It is as if YesScript has altered Facebook permanently. Facebook does not work without the script and uninstalling YesScript did not reset Facebook back to receiving scripts.

Funny when you blacklist a page, and then it keeps popping up with the blacklist - after all it is called 'yes' script.

Good, but needs wildcards. I'd like to be able to block http://*.example.com/.

And, unluck Noscript, it doesn't update/ spam their site every other day.
