 When trying to open one of the login pages of my bank,
 https://ekort.swedbank.se/ in Firefox 24.4.0 ESR and newly-updated HTTPS-
 everywhere 3.5, the page loads with HTTPS-everywhere enabled, but when I
 add an exception in NoScript to allow JS on the page and reload it, the
 browser windows freezes permanently. Disabling all plugins except HTTPS-
 everywhere makes no difference, neither does re-installing the plugin.
 However, trying on another install with the exact same version of Firefox
 but a more or less untouched user profile and HTTPS-everywhere the page
 loads without freezing. This might be related to bug #11530 - which I can
 also reproduce.
