Handling JavaScript in your Browser

Brian Krebs has posted a helpful article on the best ways to control JavaScript running in the most popular browsers.  I am a big fan of using the NoScript add-on in Firefox.  In IE 8, I set the Internet Zone security setting to "High" which blocks everything.  Then, if I need JavaScript to run on a site that I trust I will add the site to the Trusted Sites Zone - safe, but cumbersome.
