Everything within the SOFTPEDIA download appears to be MUCH more TRUSTED as **REAL** v23.
-
According to Major Geeks, v23 should be dated mid-December of last year. Softpedia also indicates v23 should be dated mid-December of last year. I personally would not "trust" the files from FIVE DAYS AGO. If they came from an httpS source, I wouldn't be so skeptic. No offense, but I will **NOT** be installing that http-sourced file! It is just not the way I historically do things, don't see the need to change now.
-
As a general rule of thumb, I historically REFUSE to download "trusted" content from http, especially "security" software! The version.ini does report v23. I will install into an XP *VM* later this morning. Several extracted-retain-timestamp files are dated from only FIVE DAYS ago.

Hello, I am seeking productivity software and am hoping to find the following for a Windows ME laptop: - A mind mapping and flowchart software - General softwares related to mind mapping - A custom glossary or dictionary maker Is there freeware available? Thanks!
-
I can try tomorrow. Typically, my Modus Operandi is OFFLINE INSTALLER with internet DISCONNECTED during install. My XP rebuild machine is not ready yet. All I can offer is a VM install (generally 90+ percent accurate, but only "real" machine can fully state 100%).

Well, that's puzzling, because that file is exactly the same as the one I used earlier on to install Panda Dome. I've checked its internal version.ini information, and it's exactly the same as you found. However, the version.ini in my installation contains this - [VERSION] VERSION=22.03.05.0000 LINE=4.0 TYPE=Release NINST=20250812_PandaZone BRANCH=PandaZone REV=1 BUILD_DATE=12/08/2025 17:26:32 CID=C9BE6BCA-FB59-4987-9875-D4087D53F0E6 [MODULES] INSTALLER=7.10.00.1004.b NNS=4.7.0.602 PSBOOT=1.0.34.0 RKPAVPROC=2.0.11.0 I can try installing using that file again, but I would wager good money that the end result would be exactly the same! The fact that the official download from Panda's website, albeit an online installer, produces the same result, I cannot explain either. Has anyone here actually managed to get an installation of version 23 installed? -
Below link, http://acs.pandasoftware.com/Panda/FREEAV/Promo_pd/FREEAV.exe will afford a relatively big offline installer, sized ca. 162 MiB, with file version 15.14.5.0 and a digital file signature (SHA2 only) of Jan 11th, 2026; I wouldn't install it, but when opening that EXE with 7-zip, file FREEAV.exe\Program Files\Panda Security\Panda Cloud Antivirus\VERSION.INI reads: [VERSION] VERSION=23.00.00.0000 LINE=4.0 TYPE=Release NINST=20251127_PandaZone BRANCH=PandaZone REV=1 BUILD_DATE=08/01/2026 23:11:41 CID=BE719E91-B06D-4263-8AB5-BF70044CC02B [MODULES] INSTALLER=7.10.00.2104 NNS=7.0.0.638 PSBOOT=1.0.34.0 RKPAVPROC=2.0.11.0 so I assume it to be of version 23 ... -
Well I've just updated my Panda Dome to the supposedly latest version, and it seems to be working fine, with no detrimental effects on system startup or anything else so far, which is good. Fingers crossed! I was a bit surprised to find that it's version 22.03.5 though, I thought there was a version 23? I tried with the supposedly latest offline installer, and that gave version 22. I then uninstalled that and tried with the public online installer from Panda's website, and that gave version 22 as well. Is there actually a version 23, and if so, where? It all installed fine, and works fine, the only strange thing was that it wouldn't log in to my Panda account. I immediately thought about HTTPSProxy, so I set Panda Dome up with the proxy address and port, and it came good. Not unexpected of course, but the strange thing is that the first version I had installed, version 21, did not need me to do this, it logged in fine immediately with the default settings. I can't explain that, but it's working anyway.

I'd be more inclined towards "betting any money" that if we keep pinging "support" that the end result will end up being the REMOVAL of said advertised XP support.
-
Which functions from the Win98 kernel32.dll do you need? It's not as simple as it may seems, many functions in kernel32.dll require certain global variables and special functions whose locations - addresses are hardcoded and they are initialized when the kernel starts, and the locations of these special variables and functions in the Win95 system are not the same as in Win98.
-
Panda Dome's support has to be also made aware that while they advertise Windows XP SP3 x86 support, some features of the application (e.g. activation, sign-in to a Panda account) on that OS require ProxHTTPSProxy (or equivalent), which is NOT part of a standard installation of that OS; perhaps they need to "relax" some of the cipher suites needed to establish those secure connections, when XP SP3 is being detected as the host OS; but given their response record so far , I'm not betting any money in them addressing the mentioned issue(s) ...

I use Panda 22.03.01 and on a dual or quad core systems PSANHost upon boot up doesn't really waste any cycles, only swells to ~100MB and then goes down to ~15MB from what I observed in TaskManager. It's been a wonderful replacement for Avast and/or AVG and their treachery of the XP systems after all this data we've shared with them throughout the years. -
that had to be said. And yes, you were absolutely right. At least, Adlice's support has replied quite quickly. In contrast to that I haven't heard from Panda's support for weeks. Seems to be non-existent. -
Native (WDM) HD Audio driver for Windows 98se/Me
Drew Hoffman replied to Drew Hoffman's topic in Windows 9x/ME
My driver is is a mini-driver using the WaveCyclic miniport. ReactOS already includes Dogbert1's CMI8738 driver which works on the same miniport, though they have modified how it builds (compared to the version in the Google Code Archive) to remove the dependency on the Microsoft DDK. I would bet that CMI driver was also based heavily on DDK sample code just because the file and function layout is very similar to the two examples but I can't prove that and wouldn't want to accuse anyone of anything. - Last week

... Not to toot my own trumpet , but... Thanks to the one person that (positively) reacted to that post ...

How do you add the Everything Toolbar to StartAllBack? I used to have it loaded but needed to reload everything, and now I can not figure out how to load it as a toolbar. Thanks
-
At the beginning of my Odyssey, I investigated all folders and registry keys belonging to Panda Dome. Therefore, I also found the location of these background images. Additionally, I analyzed the registry accesses of Panda Dome, in particular with regard to the background images. But I have not yet identified the core of the problem. Unfortunately, it is in my nature to solve problems. The pictures are totally unimportant, but I still have to solve the problem. Especially if it works in my other partition. But in any case, thanks for your efforts!
-
I initially had assumed that the background images were downloaded so they could be changed all the time, but as I'm sure you're aware, they are actually stored locally, in my case in D:\Users\All Users\Application Data\Panda Security\Panda Security Protection\Res\4252\Images. Whether they are replaced by new downloaded images every now and again, I don't know.
-
The interface can't load their background images. Today, I have replaced the version 20.02.01 by 21.01.00 for better comparison with Panda Dome 21.01.00 on my other Windows XP partition. In the latter, Panda Dome 21.01.00 runs fine. Unfortunately, I also had other issues with the version 21.01.00 I already posted here. I really hope that these hourly service restarts won't happen again.

Thanks for the Revo Uninstaller download link! Is the rolling news entry working at the bottom of your Panda Dome interface dashboard, or is it just the wallpaper that's missing?
-
Thank you very much for the new screenshots! Now, I can see all your 90 entries in terms of Microsoft .NET Framework 4. Hope it will help me to find more missing updates for fixing Panda Dome.

Revo Uninstaller 2.4.5 is the last free version for Windows XP which is offered as an installer and a portable release. You can get it here: https://www.revouninstaller.com/version-history/. Revo Uninstaller Pro 3.2.1 (installer/portable) is the last paid version for Windows XP. It's a very important tool to get rid of remnants regarding antivirus/antimalware programmes.
-
Good thought, I suppose I could have installed it in February 2019, but I've no memory of that. The Revo installation file I have archived is from March 2023, so I guess that's when I would have last installed/updated it. Still OT of course, but do you happen to know what the last version is that will run on XP? My version is 2.4.4 and when I run it, it tells me there's a newer version, downloads it, and then says it won't run on my operating system when it tries to install it!
-
<OT> Maybe you installed Revo on that date? And the 0KB is a Revo bug? </OT> Same here. It didn't seem to slow down my 18yr old computer (now with XP POSReady), so of course that was a plus.
-
I don't remember doing any reinstallations or system repairs at that time. Anyway, here's the output from Revo Uninstaller using the search term you recommended. I hope that gives you what you need. Strange that as well as the updates apparently all having been installed on the same date, they all appear to be 0KB in size!
