A smart extension that controls javascript, iframes, and plugins on Google Chrome.

Image from store ScriptBlock
Description from store Scriptblock is an extension that provides better control of javascript, iframes and other unwanted content. It even can midigate cross-site-scripting(XXS) attacks and drive-by-downloads. ScriptBlock works perfectly together with other extensions like AdBlock, AdBlock Plus or Ghostery. You can add your trusted sites to a whitelist, so they will not be affected by ScriptBlock. If you like this extension, please support me and click on the donate button or give me a good review in chrome web store. :) For bug reports please go to: https://github.com/compvid30/scriptblock

  • (2023-09-11) Shadowcatcher Fox: Would be better if the popup for determining whether to allow/deny/temporary allow a site's scripts to run wouldn't be mostly obfuscated by the url bar, making it impossible to make a selection.
  • (2023-08-27) J J: I can't believe how useless this extension is. It really is useless. Does nothing.
  • (2023-06-14) Sun RA: I like it, but it has a serious problem with freezing up some known good websites, without the ability to allow them on the spot. I'd rather not go into the settings each time to whitelist them.
  • (2022-09-13) Ibrahim Khairy: جميله بتحذف ال paywall
  • (2021-11-27) bloodys spammers: ⭐💥⭐ ESSENTIAL EXTENSION!! ⭐💥⭐ AdGuard, Bitwarden, LocalCDN, Better History, ScriptBlock, Marvellous Suspender & Tab Manager Plus! ⭐💥⭐
  • (2021-04-02) Ron Allen: 2021-04-02-Just blew up - brke a lot of my typical apps. Removing.
  • (2021-02-19) Mst Jarna Begum: Very good extension. I like it.
  • (2021-02-08) Teirdalin: Blocks Ameritrade scripts without giving the option to allow.
  • (2020-11-25) William Gault: Awesome! Currently using this in Microsoft Edge (Chromium). At first you'll find yourself annoyed with all the sites with broken features since the extension is blocking scripts by default but once you start whitelisting your usual sites, you'll start to notice the internet is a better place. Less popups, less auto-starting video adverts, and certainly a safer browsing experience.
  • (2020-09-18) JON Cunningham: Works Great!
  • (2020-09-14) Works like a charm! Has some unexpected benefits as well :)
  • (2020-08-04) Carl Page: Was useful but now seems to block my ability to control my local routers such as negear, and stops sites that use CloudFlare. Need to unistall.
  • (2020-07-26) Bady89: Simple and Good , since years my favorite tool against scripts. It is not true that you can only block all or nothing , you can choose from a List what you want and what not.
  • (2020-02-03) KreZok 99: excellent...
  • (2019-12-08) HomeofTaiwan 2015: really really really good.
  • (2019-11-23) Dan Chase: EXCELLENT!
  • (2019-07-27) First Last: i actually LOVE this extension and consider it VITAL but basically, I can't use it anymore because some dumbas* reason this extension overwrites the standard javascript Math function... even when you disable on whatever page you want to visit, it still breaks it... it even breaks incognito mode even when the extension is not enabled for incognito mode... WHY ARE YOU OVERWRITING STANDARD JS FUNCTIONS?
  • (2019-06-04) Seth Rick: It works great, on most cases, only disappointment would be the lack of blacklist mode, it can be much handier if it let user to choose between blacklist mode (only block certain sites) and whitelist mode (block everthing not on the white list).
  • (2019-05-20) Bruce Bates: I was looking for a scrip that would block all iframes from loading. The plugin claims to be able to block/control iframes. To put it simply, it doesn't work. I tested on my server in 2 minutes. Created a page which loaded another page in an iframe. I insalled this plugin and revisited the page.... the page loaded fine, so did the iframe and its contents. Nothing blocked. Uninstalling plugin now.
  • (2019-04-08) John R: Amazing complement to Adblocker !
  • (2019-03-13) Paul Trigger: A useful extension for wide web-browsing. Once you use it for a while you'll have all your regular sites whitelisted and prevents random popups and other garbage from executing anything. Yea it's very simple (basically just a switch) and has little to no filtering but it does the job. Also a great workaround for those ***hat sites that force you to turn ublock/adblock off or deny access.
  • (2018-11-08) chillystella: 很强大但体验很不友好,最佳的策略应该是默认不屏蔽所有网站,用户想屏蔽时再开启。
  • (2018-10-19) Emmanuel Lasmézas: cà fait plusde 3 ans que je l'utilise.
  • (2018-08-20) Iulius Augustus: love it
  • (2018-08-08) Peter Bjørn: Very good and simple scriptblocker that makes casual browsing safer for most people. It's not as fine-grained as say Scriptsafe, but that doesn't change that it does a good job. Kudos. Good to have it back on the store.
  • (2018-07-13) Dwight Brooks: Very glad it's back in the store! It's the best app on Chrome for blocking unwanted scripts.
  • (2018-07-08) Lars Jungbluth: Favourite script blocker!
  • (2018-06-24) Dominique Powell: When an element on a page tried -- and subsequently failed -- to run Flash, I noticed that something had return to my menu -- scriptblock! Yes, it can be... cumbersome at times having to toggle scripts on and off when you're in a hurry, but it's better that than getting infected. Love this thing!
  • (2018-06-21) L Pusey: always was the best and now its back
  • (2018-06-16) CavalierX: I'm glad to see ScriptBLock back in action!
  • (2018-01-31) Jody Grassel: Fix the popup window, for ages whenever you click on it, you have an excellent chance of it showing above the web display area, so it's totally inaccessible.
  • (2018-01-28) Mehmet Öztürk: çok iyi
  • (2018-01-25) Helton Warlley: Funciona de verdade. Foi o único que funcionou no site: http://www.megatorrentshd.com/
  • (2018-01-13) Federal Agent: How the hell this has over 2 stars is beyond me. No cascade option and it just is tedious to whitelist everything. Don't bother.
  • (2017-12-13) Nindya Putri: Lumayan, cuma tidak bisa block script secara manual.
  • (2017-11-10) Giacomo Pollio: perfect!
  • (2017-11-04) Zeke Alex Carter: muy buena, pero requiere nueva actualización para paginas web como: mwpaste.com, acortalo.net, porque los script no son detectados por esta extensión por todo lo demás excelente
  • (2017-10-30) Влад К.: На примере serials-now.ru - блочит работу всего сайта, а не майнинга на сайте
  • (2017-10-05) Thorbjørn Lorentzen: It works fine, but I can only agree with others, that it needs a blacklist function. A whitelist approach is simply too aggressive for me.
  • (2017-10-02) Gaurav Kale: Works, easy to use GUI to quickly whitelist/blacklist sites, protects against XSS attacks. WELL DONE.
  • (2017-09-29) Ray Sturgil: Very pleased with this extension.Several of my bookmarked sites now load 1-2 seconds faster than before.A definite keeper.

  • (2022-10-25, v:1.5) Rick Brower: eBay exceptions
    eBay doesn't load far enough for ScriptBlock to show what is being blocked. I've come across other sites that behave the same way. Can it be improved to provide feedback before Chrome stalls, or is there a development mode that might show the issue? Is there a way to see the issue in 'More tools->Developer tools' or something? Here is a conversation I just replied to suggesting ebaystatic is the issue, but I am not 100% sure that is the right one. Scriptblock breaking Ebay.com Ebay.com is whitelisted but whenever I go to ebay with scriptblock on the site freezes and it says "page unresponsive". There are no options if I click the scriptblock extension except for "donate/options/close". Posted by Roy Dallas - Jun 30 Reply | I fight this every time I use ScriptBlock on a new browser. Here are the three eBay exceptions I have, and I think it is the ebaystatic one that is hard to find. ebay.com ebay-us.com ebaystatic.com Posted by Rick Brower - just now Yeah, ebay has definitely broken. I can't find a way around it. Posted by Jared Heath - Jul 12

  • (2020-05-28, v:1.5) Peter Maizitis: Scriptblock will ignore white list every-time I close and the reopen Chrome
    Scriptblock will ignore white list every-time I close and the reopen Chrome .... this just started this week ... 5-28-20
  • (2019-06-29, v:1.5) Matthew Swahn: Unable to allow javascript on current version
    I'm not sure if this product has been updated recently, but when I click "allow" on sites nothing happens. only way to view javascript on sites is to "temporarily allow all this page"
  • (2019-06-12, v:1.5) Thomas Considine: Abandoned Extension ?
    I must assume this Extension has been abandoned by the Developer compvid30 for the following reasons: 1. Extension hasn't received an update since 2015. Note: Chrome Webstore says extension was updated on June 12, 2018, but that is the actual date the Privacy Policy was updated. 2. Developer has never responded to any Support questions from end users 3. If this Extension had 200k more downloads, it would be ideal for hijacking.
  • (2019-02-16, v:1.5) Rob: Firefox Support
    Im sure you must get this a lot but it'd be awesome if you released this extension on firefox. Your UI is far and away better than anything available on FF.
  • (2019-02-06, v:1.5) Rob Taft: Blacklist vs Whitelist
    Can you make a blacklist mode instead of whitelist. Many websites don't give me the option to allow scripts in the tool, all I see is 'Donate', 'Options', and 'Close'...no allow, it doesnt always work right. I really only want to block scripts on certain sites, not everything.
  • (2019-01-21, v:1.5) Kevin Cortes: Password Change Causing Extension Corruption
    When I change the password as per the instructions in the options > password status tab, the extension becomes corrupt, and the icon disappears from the browser window. To fix the problem, I have to execute a 'repair' from the Chrome extensions page. However, this changes my password in the CHANGE_PASSWORD_HERE.js file.
  • (2019-01-04, v:1.5) wibie4Life: Some sites gone white out
    One example, when the javascript is blocked for Kompas dot com, the site's page gone all white; any page in there same symptom. While so, the links in the respective page are still clickable. The same goes with website Liputan6 dot com This is a recent problem (probably after the last update?). Before, I can access the sites just find with JS blocked.
  • (2018-10-13, v:1.5) Mel Brands: Is it possible to assign it a keyboard shortcut?
    I love this extension! It does things exactly as I want them. Is it possible to add a keyboard shortcut to "Temporarily Allow All on Page"? I have to use the mouse to enable things. Would love it if I could do this with a keyboard shortcut. Thanks!
  • (2018-08-07, v:1.5) K B: no page control
    No way to turn off blocking on some non google sites?
  • (2018-07-24, v:1.5) Tyler Henthorn: ScriptBlock should remember settings
    ScriptBlock seems to forget which sites I have "Allow"ed fairly quickly. I would like some control over how long ScriptBlock will remember them. Remember them for a year? Remember them forever? Remember them by storing them on Dropbox?
  • (2018-06-20, v:1.5) Blocking All Sites
    Why is it blocking all sites, I thought it was only suppose to block what was thought to be harmful sites????
