Drop the quality to a lower level. Nobody really "needs" 1080p 100% of the time. Sometimes we bring upon our own problems via unrealistic expectations. That's my only guess as I have no playback issues in v11, even at 1080p.

Link for convenience to the discussions about maintaining browsers on Windows Vista, Windows XP, and Windows 2000. Browsers working on Older NT-Family OSes

AFAIK - and historically - the different perception in speed derives mainly by two factors: 1) comparing a brand new fresh install of the new OS against a (poorly maintained) old OS install (including any number of not fully removed/uninstalled services/drivers/runtimes and what not) on the SAME hardware 2) doing the above, but additionally testing the new OS on new (faster) hardware, so that the difference in performance of the hardware adds up On the other hand, and this is very common among MSFN members, when they "judge" an OS they judge it not "as from factory" but rather a particular version/install of it, adjusted/tweaked, etc. as I pointed out on the referenced thread. jaclaz

This is a build of IrfanView with preliminary support for the JPEG-XL format. It doesn't look promising because the library is 2.5 MB, and includes some bloat unrelated to image compression. Unsurprisingly, it does not load under WinXP. The usual quick attempts at fixing it and identifying missing DLLs don't work. I can't understand why that is. In Dependency Walker I only see links for KERNEL32 and USER32. On the bottom pane there is an question marker near MSJAVA.DLL, but I don't understand the meaning of this. Any chance it can be made to work? http://www.irfanview.info/test/iview32_test.zip

Follow the images Then restart the browser. It should be on English now (some stuff will remain in Russian, I guess those are the modified parts). As for a download link for Opera 12.18, this one seems to work (original version) --> https://archive.org/details/opera1218

I do not use that old browser, but authentication of certificates requires TLS 1.2. This old Opera post looks like it might be helpful: https://forums.opera.com/topic/9630/opera-12-17-tls-1-1-and-tls-1-2-settings-not-persistent

I am looking in to it -- SP4. SP4 may cut down lot of my effort - that's for sure. Thanks for the link and info.

Getting Old !!!... ... ...

To restore those two maps, you will need to make your browser "less secure". Edit the loader .ini file and remove these two entires ::: --disable-webgl --js-flags=--noexpose_wasm (you will need webgl for sure, unsure if the latter entry needs removed or not) Then copy the "swiftshader" folder and the libGLESv2.dll from any of Humming Owl's releases into the equivalent folder structure in my release. But do this knowing that these were removed for the sake of added security. "swiftshader" is not limited to Vulkan GPUs, though it may have been when first introduced. It is required for those "3D" maps. I personally advise against enabling webgl (required for swiftshader) just for the sake of a weather forecast (weather web sites are a dime a dozen) - but totally your call, it is your computer

I've found a nice little feature in Invidious, the alternative Youtube interface. You can download Youtube videos right to your Windows 98 computer. Tested with a TLS-patched Netscape. When going to a video site, it says "Download as:", then there is a wide choice of video and audio-only formats. Currently, the instance at invidious.snopyta.org makes a healthy look now. But that can change rather quickly, as instances come and go, and need to close down when the load on them becomes too much or Google changes their code to block them.

That's personally one of my bigger reasons for 360Chrome. I have x64 7 and x64 10 on two laptops -- but using "older" software is much more efficient and less resource-hungry. I don't "need" 360Chrome for 7 or 10, "official" versions, be it Mozilla-based or Chromium-based, already run on those OSes - but at huge cost to resources.

Bingo!

Be sure the number is more than that, i use your build 11 & 12 for more than a month and i'm more than satisfied i ven talk about it around, last week two friends adopted it as main browser... for the record version me too i don't like version 13.5 and you know why.

I wish they would concentrate on finishing that rather than finding more things to remove from UXP! customElements has been standard for some time and implementing it would probably go a long way toward making their browsers work with several troublesome sites. I would guess that YouTube tests whether some aspect of Web Components is enabled; if so, it tries to use it, then fails due to the incomplete implementation. So in this case, no implementation beats partial implementation.

You can enable it if you have an Encrypted Media Extension worth running. The only EME left is Google's WideVine, but the last version that runs on XP is no longer used for streaming, so there's not much point in enabling it. I just checked and that pref is enabled on my browser, but that was just a leftover from testing the Adobe Primetime CDM (another EME) for playing h.264 videos. It works, but @roytam1's browsers have simpler ways to play those, so there's not much point in enabling it either.

Yeah, he's got an extension for GitHub/GitLab utilizing so called "polyfills". Also seems to have some more specifics than just "work on these URLs". Web Components, which includes customElements, were supposed to make it in one of the last major versions of Pale Moon, but it hasn't happened yet. Partial implementation can be enabled in about:config by turning on dom.webcomponents.enabled.

Try to run the browser with the --user-agent="" flag used in a shortcut --> https://www.chromium.org/developers/how-tos/run-chromium-with-flags For example, this one should make you spoof Chromium 95 under Windows 10 x64: --user-agent="Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/95.0.4638.69 Safari/537.36" You can get more Chromium UAs here --> https://developers.whatismybrowser.com/useragents/explore/software_name/chrome/

The last version of @roytam1's FxESR 45.9.x fork that would accept the official Mozilla Fx 45.9.0 language packs, https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/45.9.0esr/win32/xpi/ is package "firefox-45.9.29-20201010-7391af2bb-win32-sse.7z"; later versions have become incompatible with the original language packs (LPs hereafter...). In said compatible build, browse to the LP you want to install (e.g. Greek = el.xpi) and click on the link; allow the site to install extensions, then click Install; after the installation has been completed, open about:config and locate pref general.useragent.locale Change its value from the default (en-US) to the one matching the freshly installed LP (e.g. el); restart the browser and voila: OTOH, if you wish to move to a more recent Fx45esr version, you'd have to use English exclusively, or adapt yourself the existing LPs to accommodate the locale changes introduced by the "upstream" Roy follows to produce his fork...

We kinda drifted OT a bit, didn't we? Trying (perhaps in vain) to bring things back around to browsers, I think the Web browser is the one app Google, M$, et al. use to force us to quit using our favorite OS and "upgrade." After all, that's the main reason I no longer use Win 98SE: can't browse the modern Web, even slowly, with anything that runs on it. We've all done a remarkable job here keeping XP alive with @roytam1's builds of Firefox-based browsers and @Humming Owl's and @NotHereToPlayGames's builds of 360EE. All are useful and the latter two are compatible with pretty much anything the modern Web can throw at us. But UXP has taken us about as far as it can, and even 360EE is about to reach the end of the line for XP. And you all know full well that the powers that be will keep changing things, so we'll all be forced to "upgrade" to a new browser (probably based on Chromium 95 or "modern" Firefox) that has no hope of running on XP or Vista. Luckily we do have Win 7, which isn't a huge adjustment for XP/Vista users, but the writing is on the wall for Win 7 too. Maybe China will once again buy us a few more years, but eventually even Win 7 will succumb to the shifting sands of the Web, and browsing will become impractical even on Win 7. At that point, I think Win 8.1 (with Classic Start Menu) is at least tolerable, but Linux is looking better & better....

Someone living in Eastern Europe can only tremble watching phenomenons, known from the times of communist takeover, creep back into mainstream politics. The restriction of open debate , but most importantly the restriction of the right to participate in a debate.

Soon there will be only HTTPS as option and companies wont allow you to access http sites to "protect you". One thing Mozilla fails to protect me from though is from burning nerves when launch firefox with new bloat ui. That is horrible to use on small laptop. It is like mozilla showing middle finger and saying "I do not care from your opinion or if you want functional UI" Ok now to the topic of this artcile. I did some correction and I also tested it on my lab pc that and it indeed block me from reading actually informative site that just happened to lack HTTPS. Good job keeping me on wallen garden. HTTP does not equal malware sites. Most malware sites got HTTPS these days so that tells nothing. it wont on me on either cases since I wont let browser scan files I download but when scanned files using local antivirus it infected executable. I recommend block scripts overall by default. HTTPS does not mean js cannot do harmful things to your machine. All it takes is one link to land on infected site. Also if I modify CDN or other provider site uses I can use that to load bad script no matter if got HTTPS or not If you feel like my purpose is to mean for you, it is not. I am not any casual with safety. I have done lot of pentesting and test runs of exploits and know how they work. I can grab nice amount from victim system with javascript only. Point why I keep saying false protection is because they assume everyone are equally stupid and wont give advanced user option to choose. We made web disaster it is now and try patch around without actually adminitting core mistake, browser running unauthorised program code on cpu is horrible idea. And there is need for encrypted connection for sure on sites like banking and others but not every single simple site. There is many older and embedded systems that cannot do TLS and are locked out from internet for that. I also enforce HTTPS whenever can but sometimes cannot. If HTTPS is not issue why does frogfind search engine exist that cripples it along with other bloat? Also when I say victim I mean my own virtual machine or person who asked me to do the testing on isolated lab network, not someone unknown. I don't abuse my computer knowledge
