But it's crazy when you realise the amount of sites that rely on javascript being switched on. Especially eCommerce sites! Of course I have the Web Developer toolbar Firefox extension which allows me to switch a few things on and off. Handy when some flash is annoying and you can't switch it off or turn the sound off!

I use the Noscript Firefox addon to make sure that I have total control over what javascript is running in my browser. I only whitelist sites that really need it or that I trust. If a site doesn't work without then I can enable it temporarily. It's a decent way of getting rid of all sorts of site bloat and to prevent certain types of adverts appearing. Worth a try - I really like it. I'm actually part of the 6%, or potentially am. I use the Noscript Firefox addon to make sure that I have total control over what javascript is running in my browser.
