I know I posted this before and it got deleted. Privacy was lost in antiviruses the day cloud scanning became a thing. Discussing which antiviruses are more private because this country or that country appeals more to you is pointless. All antiviruses are data collectors unless you can turn off cloud scanning. In most antiviruses these days it's not possible to do that. If we know all of them collect data all we can do is 2 things. Either don't use any antivirus or decide which country appeals more to your privacy tastes. In my case since I live in a US territory. If I have to give some of my data I rather give it to some country far way than to participate in my own countries data monitoring. Remember covid ? In some US states, cellphones where tracked to see if people where staying at home. I don't know what's more totalitarian than that in a place of "democracy". I don't use a smartphone but if I have to give some data I rather give it to Russia. In any rate, I still think that in an antivirus thread, all antiviruses from all countries should be listed. Pros and cons of each one so that people decide for themselves . And let the politics be discussed in a separate off-topic thread about politics.

Thank you.

Thank you for your kind words! I always try to be as fair as possible when writing articles about security programmes. I always separate objective facts from my subjective experiences in my articles. I am curious to see how AVG Antivirus Free performs in your system. The main problem in writing the article about AVG was the unfortunate fact that there is hardly any information left about AVG Antivirus Free 18.8.4084.0, and the support is a joke. Since the company behind AVG is Avast, it refers to articles and information about Avast Free Antivirus 18.8.4084.0 in all support requests. Thus, there has been no real support or corresponding information for AVG Antivirus Free 18.8.4084.0 for years. Avast could actually have made this clear in general in support requests regarding AVG, but it did not.

Agreed! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

You can also avoid predefined paths and keep the control of the profile folder, and storing in a more visible folder you will not forget to backup ;) Whatever firefox browser can specify the location, ie: palemoon.exe -no-remote -profile "%PROFILEPATH%" And when you are using different computers and compatible forks, a menu script is your friend https://github.com/dapgo/Menu4multiple_Webrowsers mina7601 ... I actually found the Profile Folder but not where I expected it to be. I expected it to be in the 'Application Data' folder but it is in the 'Application Data\Moonchild Productions' folder. I just downloaded the 'New build of Serpent/UXP for XP!' by Roytam1 earlier today and did some settings and then tried to find the Profile Folder where everything would be saved.. So when the Profile Folder is created it goes into 'Application Data\Moonchild Productions'. I don't know why this happens but I can live with it, just needed to locate that Profile Folder. I was getting ready to sign on and post about this and then I read your post. Thanks for the reply. Monroe

Please don't bring politics here, and just so you know, EU is stronger than ever, and America is very well united in banning Kaspersky, in case you missed, you may familiarise yourself with the article I posted about that matter. That said, I hope we leave aside the "dead horse kaspersky" and move on! We are waiting when you gift us with the update to 360 Explorer on the 95th engine.

Post edited! Thanks!

But if you want to help here, it would be very nice if you could take a stand on this post: I have not received an answer from you yet.

No! First of all, there are no such official security concerns about the security programmes I already listed as it is the case of Kaspersky. However, if such a report is published and I become aware of it, I will also warn against the programme concerned. But the research you are doing is not official and therefore not relevant. I am sorry! So you'd better invest your time wisely.

Thank you very much, man!

Works in both NM27 and NM28 here...have you tried it on fresh profile? I don't keep history and have disk caching disabled, so if the issue has anything to do with the size of history, I have no means to reproduce.

Well, one thing is the internet and one is a specific technical board on it. While we all congratulate IcemanND for his twenty years on board , it is a good occasion to thank all the people involved in maintaining MSFN board alive all these years . jaclaz

In that case, please help me find ready builds of Brave, thank you very much.

... However, if you have just uBlockO-legacy installed, in the My Filters tab just create the one below: ! 2023-09 auf1.tv ||auf1.radio/api/get$xmlhttprequest,domain=auf1.tv Then, the auf1.tv embedded video player will stay put in St52, too (otherwise, it starts to load, displays briefly and then moves out of sight , resulting in the image you attached in your "previous reply" ) :

The reason is history chain. If nothing is deleted by URL (delete by time is irrelevant), it is possible to track all follow-ups/downs that took place. Whether it (storage/track) is desired by User, or not, depends on User. P. S. My friend Yuriy Dmitriev was sentenced to total 15 years in prison, and photos from his computer were used as evidences (of course, real reason is his human-rights-protection activity). I live in police state, so I fully agree with your concerns. But I do not agree with your solution. "Knowledge is power". I prefer to have an instrument to deal with history, rather than have no-usable/castrated history. And note, there was a sufficient instrument, at least for storage aspect - browser.history_expire*!

Nowhere did I say native user agent will solve the problem, I merely tried to suggest that user agent override as suggested by AstroSkipper is redundant in the case one is already using native user agent. Did not test the default one that adds Firefox string by default, it could be the override is also redundant in that case. And that if one is already using uBlock Origin, it can be used instead of eMatrix. Just have to enable advanced settings, then the rule "allow only auf1.tv and gegenstimme.tv" can be implemented similarly. If you're blocking everything by default, including 3rd party resources (hard or medium mode), then it's allow those two domains, if you're allowing everything, then it's block domains other than those two.

Yes, but it has much better fonts! And if I recall correctly, looking at fonts on Official Ungoogled Chromium gives you troubles, seizures, headaches or migraines (sorry I don't remember which exactly). And I agree they're ugly!

I mean the engine for XP64. The one that is for 64bit systems only.

Yes and no. On the one hand I understand your point that the notification of nothing is not "usually" normal. But on the other, what it is doing is the same as if you had manually asked it to check for updates. If you did that and you didn't get a response if there were no new updates, then you would be right to complain that it should at least confirm that you are running the latest release, correct? So it seems to me that having this harmless confirmation that there is no new version when you install a new Windows build is a much better situation than getting no response when you check for updates manually when there is no new version, which, for most people, will be a much more frequent occurrence. Yes, I suppose logic code could probably be added to check to see if this update request was occurring for the first time for this build and was not manually triggered, but it doesn't really seem that important. Just my opinion.

Hello @Saxon! If you are permanently connected with your notebook to the internet and need a real-time protection, you can try Panda Antivirus Free. Here is a link to my article: https://msfn.org/board/topic/184730-antimalware-firewall-and-other-security-programs-for-windows-xp-working-in-2023-and-hopefully-beyond/?do=findComment&comment=1244402 Alternatively, if you are willing to buy a license, you can try Malwarebytes Antimalware. This older version is very light on resources: https://msfn.org/board/topic/184730-antimalware-firewall-and-other-security-programs-for-windows-xp-working-in-2023-and-hopefully-beyond/?do=findComment&comment=1248964 And this is a more recent version: https://msfn.org/board/topic/184730-antimalware-firewall-and-other-security-programs-for-windows-xp-working-in-2023-and-hopefully-beyond/?do=findComment&comment=1244368 Cheers, AstroSkipper

Perfect. Will you also do the fix for the WebP problem?

I made a post which exposed Kaspersky collaboration with FSB, with links provided, it gets immediately deleted! There was nothing political in it, just facts.

Thanks. That's all I ask. Just so you don't misunderstand me, I mean official warnings from the BSI, as in the case of Kaspersky. I live in Germany, and the BSI is responsible for internet and cyber security in this country. In our country, such security warnings are taken seriously. That's why we have our experts, who are supposed to protect our population.

I had cleaned and decontaminated only the crap which was implemented by the website providing that installer. This crap wasn't a part of the original installer. I did not modify anything related to Kaspersky. Such modification you suggested are not allowed due to copyrights and especially not here in the MSFN forum. This would violate the forum rules. Read the forum rules!

You can't do that, it's against EULA to modify and remove parts of the programme, I already explained it. Also, I'm pretty sure it's against other Russian laws. Find an English EULA where they explicitly allow you to do that, also you need their approval to publish their modded programme at public places such as MSFN.

It would then be a modded software, and this topic includes only the original versions, Fair would be to have a banner with a warning, smth like: Custom modified AV, self-proclaimed to be secure. And I'm pretty sure it's against their EULA, so you can be sued for modding the code. It's a friendly advice on how not to get into trouble with the law.

This thread is about security programs for XP that are secure.

Ever since I upgraded my Windows XP notebook to SP3, I noticed slowness, I tend to think it's the new SP that brought it. Dear guru @AstroSkipper, maybe I bother you for your current personal recommendation of AV? I only need AV, I already have a firewall, which is being the Komodo version we discussed here earlier. Ultimately, I'm looking for a fast and easy on resources security software, of course Kaspersky is out of question due to massive security concerns! Thank you very much!

You do not need chipset drivers. You can use rloew's AHCI driver to avoid legacy IDE modes, and select enhanced SATA mode and avoid the devil that is ESDI_506.PDR for maximum performance. LAN - if built-in solution is Realtek, it might have drivers, just search the model number. If something else, try finding drivers, if can't find them, look for NDIS2 drivers, if still no luck, try a cheap PCI Realtek LAN card. AUDIO - If built-in is HD Audio - then there are no drivers, use a cheap USB Sound Card or a PCI sound card. If built-in is AC'97 - there are drivers. GPU - Integrated - only Intel Extreme Graphics 2 has drivers. Use GeForce 6000/7000 or Radeon X550/X600/X700/X800/X850 PCI-E GPUs, or an AGP motherboard/card for more choices. (Geforce 2 to 6000 series, Radeon 8500 to 9800 AGP, etc.) USB 2.0 - use unofficial drivers.

I too have this question! It seems odd. First they write they stay on older OS to be less spied on, second they port the standard Chrome/chromium, really odd.

If a user owns a computer equipped with more capable hardware, why should Windows XP be used then? Simple rule: more modern hardware, more modern operation system. I am actually here to support real Windows XP users to inform them about security programmes. And this OS is ideal for old, weak computers. There are many people outside who want to protect their computers and have to use Windows XP due to very old, weak hardware for whatever reasons. People with powerful machines can do what they want to do. Whether it makes sense or not, I leave undecided. I have given my opinion on this often enough here in different threads. And if someone wants or needs to throttle the performance of their computer, then it makes perfect sense to install Avast. In any case, all my articles and investigations are meant to spread information including my experiences whether they are positive or negative. One thing is crystal clear. The mature readers can decide themselves what they want to use as I stated long before.

I found the problematic script which causes this, tagging @win32, since he also might be interested! It's just yet another bug in Chromium 111. "Can confirm the crash at settings." https://github.com/ungoogled-software/ungoogled-chromium/pull/2262

You are absolutely right! Avast Antivirus 4.8 was a version I liked very much, and it is even today installed on my Windows ME partition which still exists only for historical reasons. And as usual in those days, Avast was lightweight and low on resources. How can a manufacturer get so much wrong, considering versions like 18.8 or the very latest?

I thought that should be said at some point, no matter how long these manufacturers continue to support Windows XP. And as for Avast, frankly, I am not really a fan of it anymore, and certainly not of AVG. I would therefore be able to live with the loss...

AVG Antivirus Free AVG AntiVirus Free edition provides realtime protection to your Windows PC from viruses, spyware, ransomware, and other malware. It can block unsafe links, downloads, and email attachments before they are run. Present version comes with an added layer of ransomware protection, which also stops hackers from hijacking your webcam. AVG Antivirus Free 18.8.4084.0 is the last compatible version with Windows XP and, as the name implies, free of charge. Although AVG AntiVirus Free 18.8.4084.0 doesn't receive programme updates, it still protects Windows XP owners with regular virus definition updates. Main features: Real-Time PC Protection - Instantly protects you against even the latest threats. Web Protection - Scans your devices and blocks unsafe links and downloads. Email Protection - Scans your emails (POP3, IMAP4, SMTP) and blocks unsafe links, downloads and attachments.

And to be fair, the positives first. AVG Antivirus Free 18.8.4084.0 seems to have a good detection rate in recognising malware as stated in the tests performed by AV comparatives. AVG Antivirus Free 18.8.4084.0 offers a real-time PC protection. It is free of charge, compatible with Windows XP, and it still receives definition updates. Now, the negatives. The installation package and the programme itself is unfortunately bloated such as Avast Free Antivirus 18.8.4084.0. Not to mention the resource consumption I had to observe which is especially a problem on old, weak computers. In my opinion, AVG Antivirus Free 18.8.4084.0 is a cheap imitation of Avast Free Antivirus 18.8.4084.0. As reported by me several times, I had various problems with Avast. But AVG takes the cake. After installing, AVG Antivirus Free 18.8.4084.0 caused only problems, crashed my Windows XP computer, and generated BSODs. That's why I provided the download link to AVG Clear 18.8.4084.0 to get rid of this version completely if you should suffer from similar problems. AVG or more precisely Avast does not provide an own version history for AVG Antivirus Free. IMHO, the choice between AVG and Avast is actually a bit like between plague and cholera , but I would always choose Avast if I had to. This is hopefully never the case again, though. TBH, I actually have listed AVG Antivirus Free 18.8.4084.0 here only for completeness to let the users decide themselves. Cheers, AstroSkipper PS: The research for this article was hell. Useful information about AVG Antivirus Free 18.8.4084.0 was almost impossible to find. The support (Avast) only points to their own Avast products. If someone is looking for support for AVG Antivirus Free 18.8.4084.0, he can expect something. And I don't mean anything good by that. Personally, I will think three times from now on whether I write anything about AVG again.

because it is chrome, not chromium.

I was under the opinion MSFN is a nice place. Sad you don't share this opinion.

You shouldn't need a crystal ball for these kind of predictions[1], usually i-ching is good enough for this kind of "generic" ones. jaclaz [1] in my experience crystal balls are touchy, you ask them the "wrong" question (according to them) and they will instantly produce garbage and need to be sent to the shop for re-tuning. The problem is not so much with the cost, but good crystal ball technicians are increasingly rare and you have to wait weeks before your ball can be serviced, at least here in Italy.

You mean socialazing with them ? I doubt that, I don't even speak German/Frisian/Saxon. And those whom you mentioned, I don't think they are of German nationality.

I'm curious will GetThreadErrorMode be available the next time ? Thanks.

They actually might, they read MSFN. I know.

Hi, what does it have to do with me ? I don't live in Germany. Looks like you confused me with someone else. Here, in Vichy, all is fine.

(for PM27/KM76/FF45) A: Download following packages for your browser edition(32bit/64bit) and extract DLLs to same place as palemoon.exe lives. 32bit LAV dlls are in separated package (extracted from K-Lite codec pack 13.5.5) https://o.rthost.win/palemoon/lav.7z Just in case if you have an older processor which has no SSE instruction set support: 32bit NoSSE (ffmpeg 3.1.1 lite build) https://o.rthost.win/palemoon/lav-dll-lite-mmx.7z 32bit No ASM (ffmpeg 3.1.1 lite build, if build above doesn't work on your processor) https://o.rthost.win/palemoon/lav-dll-lite-noasm.7z 64bit LAV dlls are in separated package (LAV Filters 64bit 0.70.2) https://o.rthost.win/palemoon/lav64.7z Q: AV1 Support? (for UXP-based applications except mailnews) A: You need to enable "media.av1.enabled" in about:config Q: VP9 Support? (for PM27) A: VP9 works if async MSE option is unchecked and "Enable MSE for WebM Video" checked in options. Q: Extensions/Themes not working after updating binaries. A: If you encounter extensions not show icon, clicking options button of extension causing browser unresponsive, etc. please try following actions: 1.a Killing palemoon.exe process 1.b Copy whole extensions folder out of profile folder (to somewhere else for example, desktop) 1.c Restart browser without restoring previous sessions 1.d Goto about:addons page 1.e Drop XPI files from the copied-out extensions folder to about:addonss page One-by-One. 1.f After all XPI files are dropped and installed/updated, restart browser Q: Virus detected? A: Tell your anti-virus program to exclude palemoon.exe and/or plugin-container.exe. Some anti-virus heuristic engines (for example symantec's sonar engine) is too sensitive to palemoon.exe/plugin-container.exe network activities. Q: Where's your patches for compiling my own? A: Please visit the link above "FAQ:". Latest source patch files are named "sources_patches_YYYYMMDD.7z" in that page. Q: basilisk browser showing basic pages in GMail? A: set these to "true" in about:config general.useragent.compatMode.firefox general.useragent.compatMode.gecko Q: Should I let official Pale Moon and "New Moon" both using same profile (at the same time / alternatively)? A: it is not recommend to do that, as they have different NSS security library, which has different encryption procedure to the saved password database. Same profile being "touched" by different gecko/goanna applications may cause unexpected behaviors. If you want to launch both Pale Moon and "New Moon" / Basilisk and "Serpent" / etc. at the same time, one of them should be in "--no-remote" portable mode. Q: How to change User Interface language? A: Please see this post: Q: Portable Loader? A: You can always use official portable launcher with my binaries, or you can use my simple portable loader written in NSIS: Q: How to install extensions/themes in BNavigator browser?
