RE: Adblocker Plus addon interfers with "Rate this website" on W
This can happen when you rate ad providers, because ad blockers tend to block requests that include references to these servers.

NoScript vs WOT (conflict resolved)
Another note: After difficulty having the WOT add-on and the NoScript add-ons playing nicely with each other, the new version 20120302 of WOT and the new version 2.3.2 of NoScript are working without conflict on version 10.0.2 of FireFox for Mac OS. For the past few months, either the WOT button would fail to appear on the upper navigation toolbar or the NoScript button would disappear from the bottom add-on toolbar. Creating a new FireFox profile worked around the conflict previously; but now I can use my original, preferred profile again. AdBlock Plus version 2.0.3 isn't causing a conflict either.
Adblocker Plus addon interfers with "Rate this website" on WOT scorecards
This is more than a tech note than a request for assistance or a bug report. I am only posting this in case other users may be baffled in the circumstances described below. The workaround is obvious and I don't think that I need any help. I doubt if WOT needs to fix anything.
AdBlocker Plus is a plugin for Mozilla type browsers (FireFox, Seamonkey) that is designed to filter out undesirable advertisements. After I added a domain name to an AdBlocker Plus filter, I encountered an error message "Oops, something went wrong... Please try again." when I click on "Rate this website" on the WOT scorecard for that same domain. I accessed the scorecard via the webpage, not the WOT addon, which was disabled. This incident involved the domain name srv.juiceadv.com; the scorecard for its parent domain juiceadv.com behaved normally and was not in my AdBlocker Plus filters.
Browser: SeaMonkey (v. 2.6.1)
OS: MacOS (v. 10.7.2)
AdBlocker Plus (v. 2.0.3)
WOT addon (v. 2011107, disabled)
