  1. It's the new Tobin paradigm. Relax; this isn't unusual at all. @roytam1 just happened to release FF45 updates three weeks in a row (8/24, 8/31, and 9/7) but one or two releases of FF45 per month has been more typical.

  2. So shocked to hear this, it was only a month or so ago that I was corresponding with Rudolph about a disk partition alignment program that he had just built. I use several of his programs, to enhance my Windows 98 installation, and to do things like applying TRIM to my FAT32 SSD. He was an absolute genius, up with the very top experts on this forum IMO. 67 is no age to go nowadays. RIP Rudolph.

  3. If you think Windows 10 was cursed (and worried about Windows 11 too?), wait for Windows 13! It will cause mechanical HDDs to explode during the live demonstration on MSFNBCNN as a RAID-80 array of them can't keep up with the loading of their own website in Chrome 3452.456.3451.414g. The pundits will note how well Windows 2000 works on their 75 year old ThinkPads.

  4. Wasn't sure which section to put this in, but here's as good as anywhere. I can't vouch for the accuracy of the information, but it's quite hypnotic to watch! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eJuvKn5j_kE

  5. Looks to me like it's a transformation pack of some sort along with Advanced System Care installed due to the monitoring widget in the upper right hand corner.

  6. He did a lot for the 9x community, It's a huge loss. I heard about this little over a week ago but I never bought anything from him or did I know him more or less than other people around here. Ya we don't know anything about his estate, or if anyone inherited his intellectual property. We don't know if his programs and drivers will continue to be available or become abandonware, with no way to acquire going forward. Id say it's probably better to give it some time and see if his work is taken over by new management. if not than everything he did will be lost forever, unless its archived for the public. I did archive his entire website last weekend in the wayback machine, but most of his stuff wasn't free.

  7. Or as an alternative just change the value of the "frontpagebetav2" cookie to 0 (if this won't work, do the same for "frontpagebeta" cookie, you might want to create it if it doesn't exist). This should force the old look (at least for now). Have you tried the ru.xpi "27.9.4_RC2" localization for 27.9.6 first?

  8. (OT, but relevant to MSFN ) ... attached image not showed To have an imgur photo upload display inline inside a forum post, please choose under the Get share links option the BBCode (Forums) entry, of the format: [img=https://i.imgur.com/[7-digit-code].jpg] ... and try to avoid their new beta photo uploader: https://imgur.com/upload?beta which is now being offered as the default ; the beta uploader uses much more resources here (CPU+RAM) compared to the old one: https://imgur.com/upload so the latter should be bookmarked and preferred in older hardware+browsers! Of course, the old one will cease to exist sometime in the near future, till then though, it's the obvious choice for me...

  9. To complete @VistaLover's post and as a proof, I will post a screenshot of the bookmarking feature working perfectly with Firefox 45 ESR SSE (latest build) on the RDD. The Netscape thingy and the custom icon are just edits done by me to "retroify" the look of XP further.

  10. @Vistaboy : Please do what @looking4awayout did (and it's the thing I always recommend when troubleshooting): create a new pristine FxESR 45.x.x profile, devoid of any extensions; safe mode only disables extensions and some gfx related features (e.g. HW acceleration, if applicable), but doesn't negate the existing prefs.js file inside your dirty profile! You didn't tell us how your existing profile was initially created; often times, profile corruption due to mysterious extension interactions/conflicts, extension upgrades/downgrades and profile migration from different browser versions (from a higher Fx version to a lower one, not to mention between Firefox forks) may be the source of difficult to dissect issues... BTW, can you still bookmark a URL via other approaches, e.g. the "star" toolbar button? Best regards

  11. Of course, this video starts in September 2003 when XP overtakes 2000. https://www.w3schools.com/browsers/browsers_os.asp (data in the video is a modified version of the data on the page) That site is visited mostly by budding web developers, which would explain why Windows 2000 has such a high market share to begin with (Google's OS market share statistics from 2003 had a market share of 19% for win2k). The Windows NT field that appears in 2012 represents client 2000, as well as all Windows Servers and presumably pre-release Windows 8; it drops considerably in December 2012 when the Windows 8 entry is added to the table.

  16. I can mention 3 ways to do that ( freeware ): - Easy context menu https://www.sordum.org/7615/easy-context-menu-v1-6/ - one click firewall https://winaero.com/download.php?view.1886 - Windows firewall control ( which improves native windows firewall ,I'm using it for years and now it's free since Malwarebytes own it ) https://www.binisoft.org/wfc.php Regards
