User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:7.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/7.0
Build ID: 20110922153450

Steps to reproduce:

After auto-upgrading to FF7 from FF6.0.2, NoScript icon disappeared in the add-on manager.
I searched on internet and I found some people who met the same issue today after the update to FF7.
Here is the link: http://forums.informaction.com/viewtopic.php?p=31326#p31326

It's explained clearly by a NoScript user how to reproduce the bug, so I just copy/paste his instructions:

-----------------------------------------------------
Steps to produce "disappear":

Restarted Fx 6.x at Upgrade Manager prompt.
Accepted Mozilla pop-over request at Fx 7.0 start for memory/general machine data.
Got returned to previous session - but with all scripting and plugins running on a page where I've never whitelisted anything.
Check up at nav bar for icon status - no icon.
Resisted using keyboard NS toggles in favour of seeing what remained on the profile.
Check add-on manager - no NS entry
Check about:config - still displaying noscript non-default prefs, however no default noscript prefs shown. - for all the world as if NS had been uninstalled.
Check profile. NS appears to be still there in extensions folder.

Steps to produce "reappear":
Begin disabling other addons.
Lucky! Disabled the first one on the list - Add-on Compatibility Reporter 0.9
Restart - NS reappears with all settings as pre-upgrade to 7.0

Steps to test Add-on Compatibility Reporter 0.9 producing the bug again:
Enable Add-on Compatibility Reporter 0.9
Restart Fx.
NS still listed in Addons Manager
NS icon still in nav bar.

Restarted several times. No addon misbehaviour.
-----------------------------------------------------

I have to report NoScript is compatible with FF7: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/noscript/
I tried to reproduce this going from 6.0.2 to Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:7.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/7.0 but wasn't able to. However, after reading the forum post I noted that I do not have the Add-on Compatibility Reporter 0.9 installed.

If I install NoScript in 6.0.2 and then move to 7.0 via the update offer, the icon shows for me fine.
This sounds as if it might be the same as Bug 680802.
Yes, I found and read the bug https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=680802 this morning too, and I think it's surely a dupe of it. Wait & see.
