I never tried it that way, because I couldn't find where to disable it
and I had no time to do research when this issue happened. Just for fun
I tried to find where it can be disabled for Firefox 24.0 right now, but
I couldn't find it ;).

I've got Ghostery installed, I'm using Ghostery to detect trackers, but
I can't find how to use it to disable scripts.
IOW disabling javascript is much more work, assumed you won't install
many add-ons. I'm only using 2 add-ons, Ghostery and Anonymox.
My Firefox ERS 17.0.9 (Vidalia/TOR) provides to disable javascript by
Edit > Preferences > Content, but I usually don't use the TOR browser or
outdated versions of Firefox.
