It is disabled. Read the Tor blog. Ignore what it says in settings.
Look at the bottom of your screen. See NoScript button [Options]. Note that you have to manually auth sites to use javascript. It seems one of those CP sites maybe you had to auth them to use Javascript to upload illegal porn or use captcha. That's what that 0day was targeting. It uploaded your MAC, Hostname and IP to a clearnet verizon address, but only if you had Noscript disabled.

Click on Noscript options and go into settings. Block all java and silverlight/flash though tor button is blocking that anyways.
