  2. Here are some facts about the sizes of SUPERAntiSpyware's virus definition files from 2024 to 2026: SASDEFINITIONS.EXE 210,345,304 bytes 07.07.2024 SASDEFINITIONS.EXE 214,737,232 bytes 27.05.2025 SASDEFINITIONS.EXE 353,800,400 bytes 23.01.2026 The virus definition file SASDEFINITIONS.EXE has increased by 4,391,928 bytes from July 2024 to May 2025, which is a normal increase of approx. 2% within 10 months. From May 2025 to January 2026, however, it increased by 139,063,168 bytes. This is an unbelievable increase of approx. 65% within only 8 months and definitely a no-go. The file has become totally bloated for whatever reason. Now, I finally know why the download takes much longer time than before, apart from the catastrophic download speed on their update server, which is used by the programme.
  3. one possible theory is put forth at https://geoengineeringwatch.org personally I have no political opinion pertaining to this issue
  4. politics, drugs, religion are trouble making things
  5. yes, clear as water, sorry. As I go the default way, I was really missing something
  6. Wasn't able to find anything like that on BetaArchive Database either. I assume such CD, if it ever existed, would not have OEMSETUP.* files. So far only found Retail Upgrade CDs that don't have them. Should we ask Raymond Chen about this?
  7. Yesterday
  8. My "upgrade" install of 95 way back in the day *required* a boot disk that you had to have a previous version of Windows already installed in order to create that boot disk. The world is VERY different nowadays (you can download a boot disk [or the entire OS, for that matter]). But yes, "many" in the US and "most" outside the US were using 95 illegally. Mine was legit! :) I'd claim that to be MUCH worse nowadays! Whatever "percentage" of computer users were "illegal" in 1995, it's MILLIONS worse nowadays. *MILLIONS*
  9. You have the right to install a retail version of Windows on your PC regardless of whether you previously had a previous version of Windows or not. The upgrade version is for people who already have a previous version of Windows on their PCs. The OEM version is for computer manufacturers and system builders. OEMs are required to use an OEM preinstall kit (OPK) to prepare the installation with all necessary drivers and/or software and configurations for their PCs. Any other use is a violation of the license terms. Many people in the US and most people in the rest of the world were using Windows 95 illegally, because most people bought upgrade versions because they were cheaper, but only those who already had a previous version of Windows or DOS on their PC were actually entitled to install the Windows 95 upgrade version, and no one except OEMs and System Builders had the right to install the OEM version of Windows. Poor Microsoft. Even so, thanks to Windows 95, Microsoft managed to become the most powerful company at the time.
  10. No. Mine is an *upgrade* that was *NOT* sold "with a pc". It was purchased at my college's/university's campus bookstore. Here in the USA (30yrs ago), that is a *retail* purchase (Microsoft is located in the USA). What the word "retail" (and "oem") means is different today than it was 30yrs ago. 30yrs ago, you had to be HP, Dell, Packard Bell, Gateway, etc in order to buy an "oem" disc of Windows. You could NOT walk into a BOOKSTORE to buy the "oem" version of Windows. In order to obtain an "oem" disk, you had to buy the WHOLE COMPUTER and the disc was in the box that contained that computer. **ONLY** "retail" versions were available as a standalone purchase. **ONLY** "retail" versions were available at BOOKSTORES. I don't doubt that there were "retail" versions that were UPGRADES and there were "retail" versions that did NOT require a PREVIOUS version of Windows to be already present. So there were "retail upgrades" AND "retail standalones".
  11. @johk What you describe is perfectly normal now ; when one a) doesn't pass YT logged-in cookies b) doesn't enable a JS runtime, then ONLY the android_sdkless (ANDR-S) formats are being available; these don't include any HLS (m3u8) formats (BTW, the ANDR-S client doesn't work at all with YT logged-in cookies). OTOH, the web_safari (WEB-S) client formats (of the HLS type, only) were, up until a week ago, also accessible under the above scenario; but now, because Google have put them behind an n/sig JS challenge, they do require a JS runtime (e.g. quickjs) to be enabled for them to become available to yt-dlp. The IOS HLS formats are (at this time at least, can't vouch for how much longer ) accessible without a JS runtime, but they have to be explicitly requested with the --extractor-args "youtube:player_client=ios;formats=missing_pot" argument; this will also yield the https IOS formats, which are inaccessible without also providing a PO Token ... Hope it's clear to you now ...
  12. @NotHereToPlayGames So, do you have the "Windows 95 for PCs Without Windows" on a CD?? Nobody has it.
  13. I have to think that the answer is technically different from one country to the next. Especially THIRTY YEARS ago. I guarantee that what was *available* to me here in the USA is not the same as what was *available* in other countries THIRTY YEARS AGO. Commerce is more "global" nowadays. But it really wasn't as "global" in the mid-90s when Toyota's and Honda's were still a bit of a rarity in many parts of the US.
  14. No. The retail version of Windows 95 - "Windows 95 for PCs Without Windows" was only available on floppy disks. OEM and upgrade versions were available on CDs.
  15. You act as if that is "accurate". It isn't. I can do a "whitepages.com" lookup of my parents' phone and it has them listed about 140 miles away. And they have had the same number for 30yrs. A different "lookup" has that phone listed as being TWO HUNDRED FIFTY SIX miles away. I'm telling you, all 8xy numbers in the US are CALL CENTERS that are networked and rerouted and move all over the place. Call that number. You will be speaking with somebody in INDIA or CHINA, not Washington, USA or Oregon, USA. That's how "800 numbers" are here in the USA. Call centers and you never know what "accent" you will have to listen to.

  17. Search Assist https://duckduckgo.com/?q=Windows+95+(4.00.950)+Retail+CD-ROM Windows 95 (4.00.950) was the first retail release of Microsoft's operating system, available on CD-ROM starting August 24, 1995.

  21. You can not go by "phone number". They can (and always are!) rerouted. ESPECIALLY any 8xy number! 99 times out of 100, when "we Americans" call an AMERICAN company, we are rerouted to "call centers" *NOT* in the US. 60 times out of 100, you have to HANG UP and call again so that you can get somebody whose "English" can be UNDERSTOOD.
  22. I don't know about American phone numbers but you should know that. The number is (801) 523-6766.
  23. This won't make you happy, but in my case is true that if I don't use quickjs, which I usually don't, the m3u8 formats are not listed, what I don't care much anyway, but that is what happens to me. There is a difference in the video information retrieval, when not using the JS runtime, it downloads only the adroind JSON, but when using the JS runtime downloads the safari player JSON, the player Javascript and then downloads the m3u8. But I don't know why this happens to me and not to you.

  24. Let me guess - the company is in "America" but the PHONE SUPPPORT is *NOT* !!!???
