Confused ... it appears to be *empty* ... (viewed in plain text, below)
It smells of bad permissions...
Are you running Firefox using an unprivileged user
and a browser profile which was not created by/for this user?
Please check if user you run Firefox with has write permissions on prefs.js.
Apparently Firefox is not able to write preferences back when they are changed... definitely not a normal situation
I am running as the built-in XP Pro *Administrator Account*,
with full permissions and it is the only account on the computer.
(the Guest is disabled and the other Admin account was deleted)
prefs.js is where Firefox saves every user preference deviating from the default values.
Every time you change permissions in NoScript, one or more preferences are changed accordingly.
Even if you've never changed a preference by yourself (which is very unlikely), the simple fact you're running NoScript makes it impossible an empty
prefs.js, at least under normal circumstances.
Can you try to edit some preference in about:config and see if values are preserved across sessions (and reflected in the prefs.js file)?
Can you also double-check the profile where you found the empty prefs.js file is the one you're actually using?

I have found 2 different prefs.js files ... here is the one
with path from the Administrator and it has ENTRIES, but
it still does *not* work:
# Mozilla User Preferences
/* Do not edit this file.
