NoScript for IE or Safari?

I love using NoScript with FireFox but what about when I use other browsers like IE or Safari? Sure I can turn off javascript but the ease of use of NoScript is unparalleled. How can I get NoScript-like functionality with other browsers?

This is the closest thing I can come across in terms of something close to NoScript for IE. It's the Internet Explorer Developer toolbar, which at least lets you enable/disable scripts. Not sure how good it is but give it a shot.

OK, never mind. Here:»blogs.zdnet.com/security/?p=1421
Article is 6 months old, but IE8 provides similar protection: the XSS filter.

IE 8 is beta so scrap that for now. I don't even what to go to IE 7. What about Safari, folks? That is what I really care about.

Wrong, IE8 is no longer beta. It is now RC1, and I already have it installed. Been out a while. [Whistlin' Dixie]

before you compare i.e.7+ to firefox/noscript see links for a more indepth (possibly one eyed) take on the subject.

I have not run NoScript so don't know exactly how it works or what it does.
Info is here if you want to read it: »noscript.net/

I do run a little jem on my system by Javacool called Script Sentry, »www.jasons-toolbox.com/p ··· 20Sentry. I don't know if that is something comparable or not.
Nope.

I had just done a little research in comparing the 2. Found out what Noscript does so am deleting my comment. Thank for the response too.
