  1. Yes, but none of them work. The installer for both versions upon opening, give "The procedure entry point K32QueryWorkingSetEx could not be located in the dynamic link library KERNEL32.dll." error. Portable versions for both versions give the same error upon opening. Dependency Walker shows this:

  2. With no definition updates, MBAM 2 does not seem like a great idea anymore. ☹️ Maybe try ESET SysRescue Live for occasional scanning. It still claims to support XP and even Windows 2000, and I can’t find any mention of an SSE2 requirement (but I never used it on an SSE1-only system myself). Of course other antivirus vendors make similar bootable rescue disks that you could look into. I’m a big believer in real-time protection myself, and there are still options for SSE1-only systems. The last version of Avast that did not require SSE2 was reportedly 10.4, which should still receive definitions AFAIK (although versions 8 and earlier have been cut off). Kaspersky 18 also has no SSE2 requirement according to the article linked below. (Disclaimer: I am an American who never used Kaspersky and does not admire Vladimir Putin, but MSFN is an international forum and some members may not care what the US government thinks of Kaspersky.) https://support.kaspersky.com/us/common/compatibility/15479

  7. V13.5 build 1030: ZERO dropped frames. And that was with me throttling my internet connection all the way down to 5 Mbps (edit - correction, I was throttling at 8 Mbps but the speed test was only showing a tad over 5 Mbps - point is, even that low, I had ZERO dropped frames) - Perhaps we should have started here - are you running any anti-virus? Or how about how many "processes" does your OS run? How many other tabs are open?

  9. I posted this on the Eclipse site: "The boss of the Eclipse can pick the DVGFX apple skin at the top of the tree of these skins, but he says it's forbidden because someone else was first... in fact, this other person hasn't picked the same fruit, but DVGFX2, which is much inferior (in small fonts) to DVGFX. The apple's fate is frozen for now." hmmm what do you think about...

  10. Not so sure about resolving mental illness because its a life-long coping and dealing/living with it so resolve and cure might not be a realistic outcome to this but lifestyle as apposed to meds is a good option; nonetheless.

  12. [SOLVED] Found that Powershell works better, in case anyone is interested: powershell -c "Get-NetAdapter | Disable-NetAdapter -Confirm:$false" Put it in a batch or command script and you are good to go. Still wrestling with AutoIt, though. Powershell and AutoIt don't play nice together,, unfortunately

  14. Environmentally Conscious Cowboys Take Herd Of Crickets Out To Pasture U.S.·Jan 24, 2023 · BabylonBee.com BARNSDALL, OK — According to sources, a local ranch has decided to go green, exchanging their massive herd of beef cows for a herd of more environmentally friendly and delicious crickets. Several witnesses were on the scene as they took their crickets out to graze in a nearby field. "Yep, we reckoned it was time to do our part for Mother Earth and our ol' partner Bill Gates and git rid of them there methane-spittin' cows fer good," said ranch hand Tommy Two-Shirts. "I was a real good cowboy, but wranglin' crickets ain't easy, I'll tell you what." The Ranch currently has 15 cowboys on staff, most of which stayed on after the change to become professional cricketboys. Insiders report it has been a challenge, as crickets aren't easy to lasso, and most horses don't have good cricket-sense to know how to behave around a swarm of prime crickets. "We look forward to all of America gratefully adopting their delicious new bug diet," said Snaart Kligvile, the owner of the ranch and an executive at BlackRock. "Git along, little land shrimps! YEE HAW!" At publishing time, the ranch confirmed they had retained a private stash of prime Angus beef for Bill Gates' all-burger diet.

  16. Welcome back! Your new QUOC is a natural for MyPal 68 (based on FF 68, of course). The folks who need the (Q)UOC patch the most are those with less powerful hardware, and those same folks often run older OS versions like Windows XP and Vista. So it seems like a match made in heaven.

  21. Why We Never Found The Malaysian Flight MH370? "Fred Adam 2 weeks ago As a retired airline pilot, there are many inaccurate comments here, too many to mention. In my research, my theory fits everything known about this. The one link that is rarely mentioned is the captain on this flight. Most people think airline pilots are mentally stable, but all of the data, except the state of mind of the captain which is impossible to fathom. Yet, there are clues to this as well. But an experienced knowledgeable pilot could easily have done all of these things." "James Smith 10 days ago (edited) This is a great documentary. I still feel the freescale/engineer connection is beyond coincidence. I've always wondered if the plane was taken specifically for this technology and/or it's engineers. Possibly by working directly with one of these engineers to pull this off...or from someone within that company working remotely." "Tony Barfridge 10 days ago (edited) I just watched a current affairs interview and the latest theory is one of the pilots was responsible for crashing it into the Indian Ocean. Don't know if he was just mentally disturbed, a disgruntled employee, unhappy dissatisfying life or what. But the search area has been narrowed down to 180 km area due to analysing signals recorded by a ham radio operator in Australia. It was put into a holding pattern (?) for 20 minutes which means he could have been communicating with the Malaysian Government, the airline, or other party for directions, confirmation, to know if he was being followed etc. If it is found the Airline or Gov is responsible somehow there would be multimillion dollar claims, which of course they wouldn't want, and would also explain the silence on the matter, and lack of investigation by those parties, as they would hope it will quietly go away and eventually be forgotten; yet many still want answers naturally. Finding the wreckage apparently will reveal the true story of what happened."

  24. Methuselah Star Is Older Than The Universe Itself !... Methuselah star (HD 140283) - on space.com ... The oldest star in the universe is HD140283 — or Methuselah as it's commonly known. This Digitized Sky Survey image shows Methuselah star, located 190.1 light-years away. Astronomers refined the star's age to about 14.3 billion years (which is older than the universe), plus or minus 800 million years. Image released March 7, 2013.(Image credit: Digitized Sky Survey (DSS), STScI/AURA, Palomar/Caltech, and UKSTU/AAO) According to the generally accepted theory of the Big Bang, the age of the Universe is 13.8 billion years, but the oldest of the studied stars is more than the age of the Universe. How can this be, how can a star be older than the universe itself? The star of Methuselah is located in the constellation Libra and is 190 light-years distant from us, mass 1.3 times heavier than the Sun, one and a half times larger and 4 times brighter. Inside the star, anomalously few elements are heavier than helium, hundreds of times smaller than inside the Sun. The star of Methuselah has almost completely exhausted the reserves of hydrogen fuel in its core and is at the stage of evolution of the subgiant when hydrogen burns out, but the burning of helium has not yet begun. According to initial estimates, the age of the star was 16 billion years old, which shocked astronomers, it is much older than the universe. Later, the age estimate was reduced to 14.46 ± 0.8 billion years, but this is still more than the age of the Universe. The results of the latest study published in 2014, the age of the star was reduced to 14.27 billion years with the same error. Thus, formally, the lower limit of age estimates is lower than 13.8 billion, but scientists understand that they can not explain the paradox of the star Methuselah, it puts modern science at a standstill. Age still goes beyond the universe. There can be no errors in estimating the age of a star, but how did it happen that it is older than the universe itself? So the error may be in determining the age of the universe according to the modern cosmological model, where the Hubble constant is taken into account. The expansion rate of the Universe can change over time, therefore, the Hubble constant may turn out to be variable, which will make adjustments to the estimate of the age of the Universe. There are other difficulties that prevent you from accurately determining the age of the universe. The Universe is heterogeneous in structure and is expanding with great speed, space objects are far from us at great distances, dark matter and dark energy. However, the Big Bang theory may also be wrong. In the future, other stars older than the Universe and even older than the star of Methuselah may be discovered, for example, the hard-to-detect oldest white dwarfs who managed to go through the stage of the subgiant of the star of Methuselah, become a red giant, burn all the helium reserves in the core and discard the outer shell. The age of such white dwarfs is theoretically even higher and even the lower limit of measurement error will be higher than the age of the Universe.

  25. All of your predictions seemed to be true. I would say I am dissapointed but I already had a bad gut feeling after you first told us about their lies. Well, then it is really up to these Forums here again to try fixing what Google and Microsoft try to destroy. How is it that they say "it is too hard to port things back to 7/8.1, since Google already removed their codes"' without even trying? They're just bad liars and never really attended to do so. Again, thanks @D.Draker @win32 and everyone, who participate in finding ways how to keep up using modern software on those OS. Great job guys

  27. Amla Is the Most Amazing Medicinal Plant You Haven’t Heard Of Nature has given a wonderful gift to mankind in medicinal plants to promote healthy, happy and disease-free life. These plants play a vital role in natural healing. If I were allowed to choose the most amazing medicinal plant to treat medical conditions, it would be Indian gooseberry (amla). This plant has some exceptional benefits to health and our overall well-being. Amla or Phyllanthus Emblica belongs to family Euphorbiaceae. It is a small to medium sized deciduous tree found throughout India, Pakistan, Uzbekistan, Sri Lanka, Southeast Asia, China, and Malaysia. According to the national institute of health, Phyllanthus Emblica is highly nutritious and could be an important source of vitamin c, amino acids, and minerals. It can be used as a medicine and as a tonic to improve vitality and resistance power. Research shows that a unique complex within Indian gooseberry is super nutritious. It has more antioxidant activity than blueberries; it has 20 times more vitamin c than lemon juice. It has 30 times more polyphenols than red wine and has more gallic acid (a potent antioxidant) than any other fruit. What are the uses of amla in traditional Indian medicine? What are the benefits of this wonderful superfood? How can we use it easily at home with simple DIY recipes?

  30. You will need: Windows 95 as host, CD & Floppy DOSBox (MegaBulid 6 strongly recommended and the one I used for this tutorial) Windows Desktop Update (Bundled with IE4, but you can put it into IE5.5 or just upgrade) WinSock2 Update 64MB Ram (128 Recommended) 2+GB Hard Disk Space WinPcap 4.0 Beta 2 (If using Megabulid6 AND NE2000 emulation) 1. Install the Windows desktop update, The WinSock2 update and WinPcap if using Megabulid6 AND NE2000 emulation. 2. Install DOSBox (I used MegaBulid6) 3. Make a folder where you will have all the files for the 95 files e.g. C:\W95 4. Take the "win95" folder off your Windows 95 CD, A Windows 95 floppy vfd/img and put it in the 95 files folder 5. If using MegaBulid6, you can use the "imgmake" command to create a virtual hard disk. If not, you can use the following web site here to not only get the image but to get the geometry of the virtual hard disk image if needed. If using the download image option, make sure you have a program such as 7-Zip to extract the files. Put the virtual hard disk image into the 95 files folder. 6.In the start menu go, Programs,DOSBox,Configuration,Edit Configuration and edit the following lines: frameskip=0 memsize=64 or 32/16 if low ram cputype=pentium or 486/386 if weaker CPU cycles=max sbtype=sb16 irq=7 [autoexec] mount x (path to 95 files) imgmount c: x:\(virtual hard disk name) If using MB6, There are also NE2000 Settings, use the following: ne2000=true nicbase=300 nicirq=6 macaddr=AC:DE:48:88:99:11 realnic=1 unless you have more then 1 network card 7. Open DOSBox and copy the win95 installer files to the virtual hard disk e.g "copy x:\win95\*.* c:\setup" (make sure you create a folder where you put the setup files first) 8. Boot into the windows 95 floppy e.g "boot x:\(windows 95 floppy disk) file extension included 9. Once it boots type c:\(path to windows 95 setup) and you will enter the setup (if your having problems getting into the setup, goto to it's folder and type "setup /is" once the setup is open set it up as usual unless specified. 10. At the "Setup Options" Screen, select "Custom" 11. At the second "Analyzing Your Computer" Screen select the "Sound,MIDI Or Video Capture Card" Option 12. Note: If you aren't using DOSBox Megabulid 6 AND using NE2000 emulation you may skip this step. Select Add, Double click on "Protocol" Microsoft, TCP/IP then you will be asked to select a network adapter. Select "Novell/Anthem", NE2000 Compatible then unless needed remove the "IPX/SPX Protocol". 13. At the Computer Settings screen with Display selected, click Change,Show All Devices, S3 Trio32/64 PCI and click OK 14. When it finishes installing click Finish and OK then close DOSBox and open it again, and type "boot -l c" (you can also add that command to your [autoexec] so it runs automatically. 15. Once it loads, complete setup as usual 16. Enjoy! Flaws/Bugs: If you attempt to change the color depth to True Color 32-Bit, the screen may become pink, use True Color 16bit and lower instead. If you shutdown Windows correctly, there's a chance Windows will get stuck on the scandisk screen, you can use Tweak UI to disable scandisk. Opening a DOS Program causes the graphics to freak out so you can't open any. Fixing NE2000 Emulation on Windows 95 After I installed windows 95, the NE2000 refused to work, but i fixed that issue here. 1. When logged in to Windows, Right click on "Network Neighborhood" and click properties. 2. Click on "NE2000 Compatible" and click properties. 3. go to bindings, and change the I/O Adress range to "300 - 31F" also make sure the interrupt (IRQ) is set to 6. 4. shut down windows (dosbox) and start it back up you should now have the NE2000 working! Fixing mouse problems in Windows 95 In DOSBox, if your mouse is sensitive and you cannot move it without it going flying, here's how that can be fixed 1. In your host windows 95 right click "My Computer" and select properties 2. go to the "device manager" tab and expand the mouse tab 3. Select your mouse, click properties, driver, update driver 4. click select driver from a list, show all devices, and select in the (standard mouse types) "Standard PS/2 Port Mouse." or what your mouse uses such as serial, but I haven't tested those. 5.Install its driver and reboot. It should work as normal now. that should most if not all needed to use Windows 95 Inside of Windows 95, if there are any problems with Windows 95, you can post them here and I will happily respond.

  31. I now got it running on Vista in --no-sandbox mode after making some adjustments to locale API to allow Windows 10's dwrite.dll to load. However, the performance is very poor. It now takes up to a minute to launch the browser instead of it taking a few seconds. It should be easier to get dwrite.dll on 7 (no kernel32 functions need to be modified/upgraded on 7), but 7 still won't be able to run these new versions of Chromium because no changes have been made to the job object API there. There is also the possibility that performance will be very poor as well. VxKex will provide that and more, eventually.
