Hi, I have used YesScript for some time and enjoyed it very much as it is a simple script-blocker that doesn't carry all the bells and whistles of NoScript.

However, I would like to point out a problem I encountered recently when using Google search. I blacklist Google in YesScript, in order to stop the annoying suggested search terms from popping up in the search bar on Google's home page. But when I do this, add-ons that "clean up" Google's tracking codes for search results, such as Clean Links and Redirect Remover, no longer work, and uBlock/Adblock Latitude no longer blocks ads. The only way I can keep blocking ads and trackable search links on Google is to turn off YesScript, but that means I can't block the JavaScripts that cause the auto-suggestions to appear.

Is this a problem with YesScript itself, or possibly with the new Pale Moon version, or... what do you think? That's what I'm using, on Win7 x64 (with the 64-bit Pale Moon browser, v26.0.3).

Thanks again for a great add-on. I hope you're able to reproduce this error so that I can have YesScript and other great privacy add-ons working on Google at the same time. Cheers!
