I've used Noscript for several years. In most cases webpages will inform you that javascript needs to be enabled in order to see the webpage. For me the screen is not otally blank - look in the upper left top of the page. You can check Noscript icon icon in the lower right corner of he browser to allow or temporarily allow javascript for the site.
If I have a problem with connectivity after enabling javascript in most cases this is a host problem. I ca use my browser even when accessing the VM using WSX.
As always this is my experience(s).
