No script is great
I run my Firefox on a standard user with UAC visualization and DEP enabled on it, along with no script, adblock etc etc.
Thanks for the info OP

It was believed that other sites could also be compromised. However, since the update has been released by Mozilla, if it hasn't been offered, click Help > Check for Updates NOW. If you don't have NoScript installed, I advise considering it. NoScript - JavaScript/Java/Flash blocker for a safer Firefox experience! - what is it? - InformAction

Just got the update request to 3.6.12 some 20 mins ago...used chrome in the meantime 
With NoScript...the only thing that really bothered me, was that with every of the frequent updates, I was redirected to their page and that kept messing with my tabs.
Solution: in the URL bar enter about:config
search for a key named noscript.firstRunRedirection (if it's not there, create it)
and set it to false

I run NoScript ever since I discovered it and haven't regret it one single bit.
Of course occasionally I coma across a webpage that relies heavily on Javascript . In that case you can right-click the "S" icon in the bottom bar and allow JS for certain pages either permanent or on a session base.
It's a nice addition and even stops some ads, Adblock Plus can't/doesn't.

Ditto and I agree. NoScript is one of the reasons I stick with Firefox. I updated my FF this morning.
