Can someone with SandBoxie also test this tweak: I gave SBieSvc dependency on Windows Security Center so that on multi-core CPU doesn't rush and make a mess when loading. I'm observing more smooth scrolling in Serpent 52.9 and less memory consumption overall. However Windows XP is known to really show effect of a setting after quite a few shutdowns, not just one restart. SBieSvc: DependOnService [Multi-String] wscsvc (maybe RpcSs would also work).

Just for reading ... these articles posted by this person are usually informative. I just got another notice in the mail that I may have had medical information released by someone no longer working at a large medical organization ... of course not just me but I guess many others are also affected. A few years ago I had the same thing happen, a communications company was involved in a breach. I filled out the forms required online and then got a letter in the mail some time later after the settlement was agreed to. They were sorry but I would be receiving nothing ... there were no 'funds' left to pay anybody. Of course I'm sure the attorneys got paid and then whatever was left was soon exhausted for most of the remaining people ... a waste of time. This new one offers a possible cash settlement or 'one year' of free credit monitoring. Just a 'wild prediction' ... no cash, the attorneys will get most of it. https://www.foxnews.com/tech/5-myths-about-identity-theft-put-your-data-risk 5 myths about identity theft that put your data at risk Why quiet data exposure, not big breaches, is the real driver behind modern identity theft. Kurt Knutsson, CyberGuy Report Fox News / January 28, 2026 Most people think identity theft starts with a massive hack. In reality, it usually starts much more quietly, with bits of personal information you didn't even realize were public: old addresses, family connections, phone numbers and shopping habits. All are sitting on data broker sites that most people have never heard of. During Identity Theft Awareness Week, organized by the Federal Trade Commission, it's a good time to clear up some dangerous myths that keep putting people at risk, especially retirees, families and anyone who thinks they're "careful enough." Let's break them down. ...

Got things working on Intel PCH platforms! The problem wasn't IRQs at all, it was the HD Audio Controller's PCIe transactions no-snoop bit which wasn't getting properly cleared because of a typo in a type-cast (dereferencing it twice ). With no-snoop enabled, what happens is the audio data is written to CPU cache but not flushed out to main memory unless there is some other activity going on to use the cache and invalidate those pages (like Scandisk). I'm not sure if there is a way to explicitly flush the audio buffer to main memory or some flags to AllocateCommonBuffer which I should be passing but aren't Released Alpha-016 https://github.com/andrew-hoffman/WDMHDA/releases

Most sadly, another end is pretty close : https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/issues/15712 Soon-ish, no more youtube downloads without a JS runtime enabled (and without passing logged-in YT cookies, only the WEB-S client (HLS) formats would become available - these do require the JS runtime, though) ...

Does SuperAntispyware detect anything these days ? In the old days I used it to clean up computers. But later it would only detect cookies. It became a cookie muncher hahah

There is no Russian language

Anyone stupid enough to follow the "verification steps" of that fake captcha DESERVES to have his/her hard drive reformatted !!! Certainly NOBODY here at MSFN is that stupid. My parents, on the other hand, they have fallen for fake "download now" buttons on more than one occasion.

Good! Why not?!? Of couse it feels you're still a newbie, but good! Avast Blog: "FakeCaptcha scams—When the "I'm not a robot" button is a trap.." https://blog.avast.com/fakecaptcha-scams How do we know whether Cloudflare is not a scam itself?

I remember, back in 2015, there was a virus that asked to prove whether you're "not" a robot, when someone tried to delete it. The same what Cloudflare does. Conclusion: Cloudflare is a virus. Don't visit. Trying to parrot @D.Draker's conclusions. I know, it's nowhere near the original, but I try.

OpenSSL 3.6.1

@autodidact Thank you for the FFmpeg builds. Now, would you be so kind to update OpenSSL 64-bit dll's to 3.6.1? 🙏 This is an important security update.

and legacy.com paging issue is still being investigated by issue creator, no ETA for fixing: https://forum.palemoon.org/viewtopic.php?f=70&t=33084&p=269727#p269727 EDIT: mozilla bugzilla entry is found: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1806042

upstream #2895 is fixed with a big help from Mr.Q and better javascript random() will be available on both 32 and 64 bit build later.

Thanks for this. I'll give it a try with the emulated Virtualbox TPM 2.0 to see whether it works or not. Out of curiosity, on XP, what would you use a TPM 2.0 module for? I'm not being sarcastic, it's a genuine question, I'm actually curious. Like, I know that on Windows 11 it's used to save passkeys, to store biometric data used for login like Windows Hello via face or via fingerprint, and to perform full disk encryption via BitLocker, but what about XP? Would enabling a TPM 2.0 module to be recognized by the OS make browsers like Supermium store passkeys safely there? I don't know, I'm genuinely curious.

Off-topic post: Last Windows update for Server 2008 "R1" / Vista released on January 13, 2026. Farewell, Windows Vista. You will be missed.

I know this is an old thread, but I think this version is lost. All the links are dead. I've tried many other portable versions, but they don't work, unfortunately. Is it still possible to get Office 2010 working on Windows 2000?
