You might want to look at the Request Policy add-on for firefox https://www.requestpolicy.com/ It blocks cross-site requests by default. This will break a lot of sites at first since many host their CSS/images on another domain but white-listing just the ones you want is easy enough, It works in a similar way to no-script, so if you are familiar with this you will know the score. I consider it an essential addition to NoScript + AdBlockPlus.
