Comment (by linda):

 Thanks for the clarification, cypherpunk. :)

 I can see when Noscript could override the security settings and allow
 scripts to run, but could it also block scripts? I'm imagining that I have
 my security settings on low, but then I click the "Forbid Scripts
 Globally" option.

 I really wished that it couldn't, and Tor has the final say in blocking
 all things, and Noscript allows the exceptions, because that would make it
 easier to understand/it makes sense to just use the onion icon drawn above
 to indicate that something has been blocked on purpose/isn't broken. But I
 have a feeling it might not be the case..
