Stopping Injection

Injection could be stopped if more sites starting using SSL (https) instead of plain old http. Unfortunately there is more overhead to process https data but it looks like this may be the only way to thwart code injection.

I use OpenDNS, it works well. Much faster than the verizon servers...

But I also use a Firefox addon called NoScript. It does exactly what it says, stops the processing of scripts. It operates on a whitelist, with all sites starting out blocked. You have to add the sites you want. A little inconvenient, but stops -all- script viri injections, weird scripts on pages (strange cursors/etc), and kills a lot of ads, namely flash ads (puke)

It would also stop any JS that is added to the page.
