I get their point; but the obvious problem is, some of us are already using some WebExtension add-ons in Basilisk, so this breaks compatibility with our browser set-ups. IMO it would be better to leave WebExtensions in the code & just not do any further development on them (except for security fixes). Editorial: I wonder if the PM team is unclear on the problem with WebExtensions. As I see it, the problem isn't that they exist; the problem is that Mozilla decided to force everyone to rewrite their add-ons to use them, in order to install on newer FF versions; thus disabling any legacy add-ons that weren't actively being maintained. This is the main reason I switched to Basilisk in the first place - I didn't want to have to find replacements for all my legacy add-ons - but now the PM team is about to make the exact same mistake, in the opposite direction! Maybe there are also a couple of unstated reasons for the PM team to remove WebExtensions from Basilisk: To remove any incentive to move from PM to Basilisk in order to use newer WebExtension add-ons To further incentivize add-on developers to maintain legacy versions of their add-ons I may have to start using your XP builds even on Win 7, just to keep compatibility with my existing set of add-ons.

Personally, I'm not at all content with the decisions made by the Moonchild+Tobin duo... In New Moon 28, I am, of course, confined to only using "legacy" extensions, many of them I inherited from my FxESR 52 usage era; they (continue) to work at this time of writing but the harsh truth is when they start to break (and they will, sooner rather than later ), the chance they receive proper bug fixes, especially those that started life in AMO and haven't been forked to APMO (GitHub?), is minute/none... Recent "troublefests" in NM28 for me include Print Edit 18.4 (a rather convoluted, hack-ish, method to regain basic functionality is to be found in the Pale Moon forums, since the original developer shows no interest at all in fixing his XUL version: all development efforts are focused on its WE counterpart) and Stylem 2.2.4, which is currently bugged and unable to follow the progress made in the UserStyles field; more specifically, it is unable to correctly install configurable userscripts from "UserStyles.org" and has 0 support for the new "trend" that is the "user.css" format (to which many style authors have already changed ...). Even Moonchild himself acknowledges that there is a dim future regarding author support for XUL extensions (intended for consumption by PM/Basilisk users): https://forum.palemoon.org/viewtopic.php?f=46&t=21214 As @Mathwiz has already pointed out, in Serpent 52.9.0 I had found an elegant way to keep on using the greater part of the WEs I was using in FxESR 52; some of these WEs have progressed to versions incompatible with FxESR 52 and/or UXP, so am again forced to using slightly older versions (with no hope of receiving further updates), some others continue to be routinely updated to fix newly introduced bugs; plus, there's always a chance I can find on AMO a new (to me) WE (that I wasn't necessarily using in FxESR 52); in any case, retaining that (rudimentary, at times) WE support in Basilisk/Serpent was always welcome by me,,, For example, I can install and use Stylus 1.4.23 (WE-only) in Serpent 52.9.0, alongside Stylem 2.2.4, to properly install configurable userstyles and "user.css" type styles from GitHub (and elsewhere). And while Moonchild claims: in every day practice that statement is far from being a Holly Truth ; there exist (recent) extensions that only started life in the WE format; as a non-coder, it is impossible for me to "translate" them to the superior XUL format and satisfy Moonchild's expectations... I have quite a few WEs installed in Serpent 52.9.0, these include Google search link fix 1.6.7 ImTranslator: 14.15 (last version properly working) Markdown Viewer Webext 1.4.0 Native MPEG-Dash + HLS Playback 1.1.0 (only available as WE) Play/Pause 2.0.3 uBlock Origin 1.17.7.102 View Page Archive & Cache 1.5.3 Violentmonkey 2.10.1 (only available as WE) Adaptive Bitrate Manifest Viewer 0.9.0 (only available as WE) Browsec VPN - Free and Unlimited VPN 3.16.16 (only available as WE) SaveFrom.net helper 8.1 (only available as WE) Stylus 1.4.23 (only available as WE) ... so I'll be quite frustrated when Basilisk (Serpent) 52 In any case, I might keep a copy of the last WE-compatible version of Serpent 52.9.0, use my copy of Serpent 55.0.0 (which, incidentally, has better WE support) or some other thing... BTW, reddit, ghacks and the like are mostly infested by Mozilla fanbois, who never lose breath badmouthing all Firefox forks (including Pale Moon, Basilisk, Waterfox), so I never place credence to all the FUD they're spreading there... Yes, I am to an extent concerned with browser security, but usability is of primary importance to me... Being on 32-bit Vista, this obviously holds little promise for me... Unless you're implying the Waterfox Team efforts would, somehow, find their way into your forked UXP copy (hence Serpent 52.9.0)...

Waterfox team may try to keep them coexist as long as possible

don't know if I will follow or not

... This is because Pale Moon 28 (New Moon 28) has a native Site-Specific-User-Agent-Override (SSUAO) for youtube.com that forces it to display in the older ("Classic") web style, which lacks, among other things, the "Watch later" button (placed after "Share" button in the new "Material" web style). general.useragent.override.youtube.com;Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:42.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/42.0 PaleMoon/28.3.0a1 If you want to force the new "Material" design for youtube (and thus make the "Watch later" button available to you in NM28), you should modify the SSUAO to spoof a recent Mozilla Firefox version: general.useragent.override.youtube.com;Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:60.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/60.0 Be warned that the Material youtube design works better in more recent hardware (namely GPU/CPU)...

New build of post-deprecated basilisk/moebius for XP! * Notice: This repo will not be built on regular schedule, and changes are experimental as usual. ** Current moebius patch level should be on par with 52.8, but some security patches can not be applied/ported due to source milestone differences between versions.

You should be able to hide it in Windows/Microsoft Update so it doesn't install again. I assume you've got automatic updating switched on. I would recommend that you switch it off, and configure it just to prompt you when updates are available, not actually install them! IMO it's important to keep control now of exactly what is updated on your machine.

NOTE: I originally posted this in the 2000 forum, but it would also be useful duplicated here since XP has such a large user base. As we know, most websites have artificial browser requirements for using their website. Firefox can be spoofed easily on Windows 2000 and XP. I don't recommend Chrome for spoofing, because 1) Chrome does not really work well on 2000, and 2) Chrome can only store user agent changes temporarily, while the Developer Console is open. By visiting Citibank's website with Firefox 48 (last working on Windows 2000), it says the browser is out of date and not supported. So, we go into about:config , create a string value called general.useragent.override , and make the value Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:53.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/53.0 This tells the browser to report Windows XP, and Firefox 53.0. Again, we know that XP cannot really support Firefox 53. After saving, reopen Firefox and go back to Citibank's website. The outdated browser warning is gone. This proves an artificial browser warning. Also, if you visit a website to check the browser, it reports that it is Firefox 53 on XP, even though we know we are running Firefox 48 on Windows 2000. This trick will also be useful on XP, since Firefox will not be updated past version 51 going forward.

Hey, what do you think about making dedicated board for roytam1's Firefox-based browser builds having a dedicated board somewhere in https://msfn.org/board/forum/102-member-contributed-projects/ ? Currently everything is discussed in one topic: Which has already grown into megathread with different bug reports, questions, discussions related to roytam1's browsers... and they're quite many of them. Trying to find relevant info is getting quite hard with the volume :/ Dedicated board will help a) users to easily find his area of interest in the topic dedicated to his build/issue/question/suggestion b) help author to keep track of a separate issues. As the browsers seem to be popular among MSFN users, this is getting needed. Users, please vote in the poll to show if you agree Admins, mods, is this possible to happen? I contacted roytam1 beforehand and he agrees Plus, if the board gets created some redirection link in XP board will be helpful, as the browsers builds aim at XP compatibility, obviously PS turned voters visibility on.

@Mathwiz You may do so through ublock origin

I was about to suggest you try that! It seems to be a variant of Murphy's Law: Every "upgrade" will include one or more actual downgrades.

Thanks for the clarification. Good to know that "appears to be corrupt" might only mean "not supported." Since I, personally, don't use WebRTC, I just disabled it in about:config on my browser. But as I posted, someone who does use WebRTC needs a more convenient way to toggle it on/off.

Yeah, Defender now detects some of my tools a as virus. So MS blocked my entire outlook account Well new link to v18.10 on first page.

Thanks for showing me how to rescue my Word. I have a feeling that Microsoft doesn't like so many of us using our "free" Office programs! That we all purchased many moons ago!

^ your joking right?

I reinstalled 7.38 a few weeks ago, and today the update nag came back. Back on 7.36 now.

AFAIK the only current problem update is KB4461614. Uncheck it and hide it when you see it in the Microsoft Update list.

this is only a portion, there are some more missing parts. for details, you may do a WinMerge comparing with seamonkey's omni.ja\chrome\en-US\locale\en-US\ and borealis's omni.ja\chrome\en-US\locale\en-US\

Perhaps, but I think there has been as much or more, and definitely more recent, activity as the various topics under Other Member Contributed Projects. Since, I assume, the browsers can be used in OS other than XP, that might help raise awareness and interest. If a section was created there, and IF more activity was created as a result, then the discussion of whether or not to create a section higher up under Member Contributed Projects could be raised again at that time. Just my two cents, of course.

No idea about subsections, but what's long since needed are separate topics for separate browsers (NewMoon, Basilisk, rzbrowser, rz-suite, KG, ...) The prob is, I asked him before, but he declined as usual for such user needs, because they are not his own needs. But if more people care now, perhaps there's finally a chance :-)

Just download a language pack from here: https://addons.palemoon.org/language-packs/ And set the general.useragent.locale pref in about:config to es-AR (since I'm assuming you want to install a Argentinian Spanish LP.) You also have more detailed instructions there. And whenever NM's version changes to 28.4, you'll need to follow @VistaLover's instructions on what to do in order to have the LP working again (except the Step 1 to download a polish language pack obviously): Alternatively you can wait till there are 28.4 compatible, RC versions of language packs available here: https://github.com/JustOff/pale-moon-localization/releases

It did NOT play in Firefox 52.9 ESR Browser either. However, it did PLAY okay in CHROME 49 (ver.) Browser. It is a bit 'odd size' video (640x800), but unclear that it matters. It is not corrupt -- it did play in CHROME .

Specifically, WebRTC leaks two bits of info that may compromise your privacy: Device ID hashes for your microphone & camera The IP address on your local network #1 can be used for browser fingerprinting, allowing the likes of Google and Facebook to secretly track your online activities; luckily it's mostly a problem for Chromium-family browsers, not for Firefox-family browsers like Basilisk. The latter browsers randomize the "salt" used in the hash whenever the browser is started, so unless you leave your browser session running for weeks at a time, the ability of anyone to use #1 as a secret tracking cookie is limited. #2 is more problematic though. It can reveal your "real" address behind a VPN, which could be used for censorship, or alert the authorities that you're accessing "banned" material. More commonly, it will reveal one of those non-routeable local IP addresses starting with 10. or 192.168 assigned by your (real or virtual) router. That's less worrisome, but if it doesn't change often, it too can be used in conjunction with your public IP for browser fingerprinting. If you don't need/use WebRTC, the website linked above contains instructions for disabling it and preventing those info leaks. But what if you do use it? One solution might be the WebRTC Control add-on. This adds a toolbar button that simply toggles WebRTC on or off, a la the popular Flash Disable add-on. So you can leave it off for normal browsing, but turn it on before going to a site that requires it. Edit: Should have checked first. Couldn't install WebRTC Control linked above. All three versions download OK but Basilisk reports that they all appear to be corrupt. Must be a bad hash somewhere Try the "classic" version of Disable WebRTC instead. I think a better solution would be an add-on with a white-list, which would enable WebRTC automatically, but only for sites like Discord and Skype. But I haven't yet found a Basilisk-compatible add-on that has such a white-list

@JohnnieB, you can find out what updates you've received and the dates they were downloaded to your system by running Windows Security Centre and invoking the "Check for the latest updates from Windows Update" option (menu on left), then selecting the "Review your update history" option in the Windows Update explorer window which will subsequently appear (left side menu again, top option). Cheers!

Well, it's that time of the month again, and only a year away from Vista's true EoL (or EoS, as @dencorso has said about XP, though not sure if it applies to Vista as well)... And as usual, I recommend waiting at least a week before any of these, because we never know, if Microsoft won't pull any of these updates and upload it (or even more than one of them) again in a couple days. So, without further ado, let's finally get to what you all have come here for: KB4480968 - Security Monthly Quality Rollup for Windows Server 2008 - 32-bit | 64-bit KB4480957 - Security Only Quality Update for Windows Server 2008 - 32-bit | 64-bit KB4480965 - Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer 9 for Windows Server 2008 SP2 - 32-bit | 64-bit KB4481486 - Security and Quality Rollup for .NET Framework 2.0, 3.0, 4.5.2, 4.6/4.6.1 for Windows Server 2008 SP2 - 32-bit and 64-bit update catalog link KB4480062 - Security and Quality Rollup for .NET Framework 2.0, 3.0 for Windows Server 2008 SP2 - 32-bit | 64-bit KB4480059 - Security and Quality Rollup for .NET Framework 4.5.2 for Windows Server 2008 SP2 - 32-bit | 64-bit KB4480055 - Security and Quality Rollup for .NET Framework 4.6/4.6.1 for Windows Server 2008 SP2 - 32-bit | 64-bit KB4481487 - Security Only Update for .NET Framework 2.0, 3.0, 4.5.2, 4.6/4.6.1 for Windows Server 2008 SP2 - 32-bit and 64-bit MS update catalog link KB4480084 - Security Only Update for .NET Framework 2.0, 3.0 for Windows Server 2008 - 32-bit | 64-bit KB4480076 - Security Only Update for .NET Framework 4.5.2 for Windows Server 2008 SP2 - 32-bit | 64-bit KB4480072 - Security Only Update for .NET Framework 4.6/4.6.1 for Windows Server 2008 SP2 - 32-bit | 64-bit Extra/optional update: KB4487354 - Update for Windows Server 2008 SP2 for x84/x64 based Systems - 32-bit | 64-bit I think that's all for this month (for now at least), except 2 updates for Itanium based systems only, but I don't think it's necessary to post them here. I also hope you all will like this new way of posting lists of updates which are available for Vista, and which I will try to use from now on. I also apologize for no direct links to bigger .net rollups but direct downloads of those are sadly unavailable. Added KB4487354, thanks to @mike_shupp for finding it.
