Comment (by cypherpunks):

 I added as work around the XSS Exceptions but I still get XSS Errors when
 try to load the second/third/... page of search results on startpage.com.

 {{{
 [NoScript XSS] Sanitized suspicious upload to
 [https://s1-us2.startpage.com/do/search] from
 [https://www.startpage.com/do/search]: transformed into a download-only
 GET request.
 }}}

 {{{
 ^https://www\.startpage\.com/do/search
 ^https?://[^/]+\.startpage.com/do/search
 }}}

 To solve this I added another XSS Exception to allow
 https://s5-us2.startpage.com/do/search,
 https://s1-us2.startpage.com/do/search etc., ie second, third aso search-
 result-pages to be opened.
