A war has broken out between two of Firefox’s most used plug-ins, AdBlock Plus and NoScript, with both scripts trying to out do each other by disabling the others features.

The war started as a result of AdBlock Plus blocking ads in NoScript’s change log window. The change log window is displayed every time NoScript is updated, which as of late has been rather frequent, and is NoScript’s only source of income.

AdBlock is of course doing what it does best, blocking ads, regardless of the source. The AdBlock blog has a full list of events as they see the current situation.

April 28, 2009 marks Opera’s 15th birthday, with the browser launched way back in 1994. Way before many people jumped on the Internet.

To celebrate, Opera has added a few extra pages to their site, including a comic on how it al began.

Posts from Opera’s CEO, Jon Tetzchner and Opera’s Software CTO Håkon Wium Lie also mark the occasion.

You can check out what all the hype is about on the Opera website. Congratulation Opera!
