    Did you notice the date of that article? "September 25th, 2008" I don't think this is a problem anymore. I was just over at my photobucket and found nothing untoward wrong there.

    Question

    Are you running the "no script " add on in fire fox?

    I had never seen this before, maybe if i leave the check mark out of untrusted?

    But when i searched click jacking i guess i did not want to use photo bucket anymore?

    Well, I don't use FireFox, I use Opera. And I don't get that message nor do I have any problems on my computer ever.

    I guess the reason you're seeing that is because you're blocking flash. From researching that add-on is what I thought that add-on is for.

    I never liked Firefox especially after removing a skin I downloaded and FF promptly removed all the photos I just painstakingly scanned in hours before.

    I like Opera because it's simple to set up and works fine, even at Microsoft websites.

    Also I have not use photobucket as much lately because they downsize my photos, so I use www.flickr.com now

    Thumbs up

    here's what you have to do



    The culprit is the new "Click here to start uploading" balloon overlaying the Flash "Upload" button.
    As a work around by opening about:config and adding *.photobucket.com (space separated) to the noscript.clearClick.exceptions preference.

    from forums on noscript

    FYI about clickjacking... It's a serious enough problem that MS placed specific protection against it in IE8. http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/archive/200...-defenses.aspx
