You can still use the add on. All you have to do is open the context
menu on the pages you run radio stations from and authorize the
scripts to run. It can take a while to get the scripts you need on
many pages authorized so things run smoothly, but it can be done. The
only problem I encountered is that when you authorize youtube to play
videos, the autocomplete feature that makes the autorefresh problem
occur comes back, so I only temporarily authorize youtube when I want
to play a video and revoke the permissions if I need to do another
search, a bit clumsy, but I couldn't find any combination of scripts
that attempt to run on the page that allowed video playback but did
not bring back the auto suggestion feature.
With a bit of effort, you can get the pages you visit regularly going
with the scripts needed for the features you use allowed and other
scripts forbidden. For example, it took me a bit to figure out which
script on io9.com allowed post comments to show, but once I figured
it out, the comments show up and the page loads faster without a lot
of jumping back to the top of the page. No Script is not an install
and go add on, it takes some setup work, but I have found it worth
every bit of effort.

Thinking that by adding the add-on No Script would help mitigate the
spontaneous auto-loading of firefox, I installed No Script. I did
not give it enough time to know if it was accomplishing anything
because of its drawbacks for my situation. My radio stations that I
had bookmarked would no longer play, so, I removed No Script. I did
make the suggested change to Google preferences by checking the
radio button "do not provide query suggestions in the search
box." That seems to be working in Google using Firefox. Regards: Ted Larson
