uBlock Origin 1.16.4.31b2-1.54.0 - Special mod by @AstroSkipper uBlock Origin is presumably one of the most important extensions if not the most important one for users of Firefox and Chrome based browsers. Unfortunately, this extension is now only developed and maintained as a webextension. The extension uBlock Origin Legacy for our old Firefox-based browsers was only maintained and updated separately for a certain period of time. There have been no new updates since version 1.16.4.30 from 2021. Therefore, I am maintaining the latest beta version 1.16.4.31b2 here from time to time. For the last of my releases, it was completely sufficient to transfer filter lists and some files from the current webextension to the uBlock Origin Legacy extension. This has not been working properly for some time now. Here is a screenshot showing the undesired effects when the filter lists are updated in my last version uBlock Origin Legacy 1.16.4.31b2-1.49.2: At this point, a big thank you again to @nicolaasjan for reporting this issue! Due to these apparent bugs, I decided to create a new, special version that contains all filter lists from the latest webextension and no longer causes problems when filter lists are (self-)updated. I identified and analysed the code responsible for the problem and was able to fix it. I have therefore created this new, special version of uBlock Origin Legacy 1.16.4.31b2 with all filter lists of the currently most recent webextension uBlock Origin 1.54.0. In this new mod, I have completely removed the old filter lists and added the new ones. Furthermore, I modified the code taken from the webextension to restore compatibility with the legacy extension. The version is now called uBlock Origin Legacy 1.16.4.31b2-1.54.0. Here is a screenshot taken from the dashboard of my freshly created mod uBlock Origin Legacy 1.16.4.31b2-1.54.0 after updating filter lists in New Moon 28 or Serpent 52: I removed some incompatible code and modified some other. Particularly, I changed the code in such a way that the uBlock Origin Legacy extension only updates the filter lists themselves, but not the internal list of all available filter lists which is unfortunately no longer compatible with uBlock Origin Legacy. On the other hand, that also means, if the default preselection of filter lists changes significantly in the future, or certain lists are no longer supported, such changes must be made manually in the extension code from now on. Furthermore, I found a redundant filter list in the original code of the most recent webextension uBlock Origin 1.54.0. The same filter list was used twice. Thus, I removed one of them from the code. And here is the download link for my mod uBlock0_1.16.4.31b2-1.54.0.special-mod-by-@AstroSkipper.xpi: https://www.mediafire.com/file/djggsuy29y38z75/uBlock0_1.16.4.31b2-1.54.0.special-mod-by-%40AstroSkipper.xpi/file Corrected release: https://www.mediafire.com/file/z64ulz7duhuyveh/uBlock0_1.16.4.31b2-1.54.0.special-mod-by-%40AstroSkipper.xpi/file New, corrected release: https://www.mediafire.com/file/fx34irul6g4pnl4/uBlock0_1.16.4.31b2-1.54.0.special-mod-by-%40AstroSkipper.xpi/file Update 1: Now, it is fully working again. No problems any longer when updating the filter lists. The new filter list "filters-2024.txt" is now inside the xpi file and can be retrieved correctly. Inside the xpi file, all filter lists have been replaced by the most recent ones to be more recent after installing without immediate updating. Additionally, I lowered the minVersion for Pale Moon from 28.0 to 27.0 to also install it in New Moon 27. Update 2: Due to the problems in terms of filtering and blocking ads in YouTube videos, I had to correct my release uBlock Origin Legacy 1.16.4.31b2-1.54.0 once again. I restored some (necessary) code and two filter lists which were not present in uBlock Origin 1.54.0 but in uBlock Origin Legacy 1.16.4.31b2. The two lists are uBlock filters - Legacy and uBlock filters – Resource abuse. Here is a screenshot taken from the setting page: Additionally, I updated all filter lists once again And here is the complete changelog (after all these corrections ): Filter lists from the webextension uBO 1.54.0 and the legacy uBO 1.16.4.31b2 merged. Auto-update of the internal list of all preselected filter lists removed. Annoyances bug in the setting page of filter lists solved. Redundant filter list "uBlock filters - Cookie Notices" removed. Different, incompatible code removed. The internal list of all preselected filter lists modified to get the real timestamps of filter lists again. minVersion for Pale Moon and New Moon lowered from 28.0 to 27.0. Missing, necessary code restored. Filtering and blocking of embedded ads in YouTube videos restored. New, important filter list filters-2024.txt added. All filter lists inside the xpi file updated. Finally, an important recommendation to get the new installation of uBlock Origin Legacy working properly and flawlessly. After uninstalling the previous version (yes, the old version should be uninstalled ), delete all remnants via about:config and in your profile folder! The remnants of previous versions of uBlock Origin can be easily removed by the extension eCleaner. And in your profile folder, there is a file in the subfolder extension-data called ublock0.sqlite which has to be removed manually in any case. Delete the browser cache, too! If doing so, the updating of the filter lists will work like a charm after installing the new version. All users who have important, individual settings or rules should backup them before cleaning their profile folder. On the dashboard page, there is an item called "Back up to file"" to save the user's settings via uBlock itself. If you only want to backup your custom filters, go to the tab "My filters" and export them to a file! In any case, we have from now on an uBlock Origin extension for our beloved legacy browsers with the most recent filter lists which are normally provided only in the webextension of uBlock Origin. Please, test this special version and report here! Any feedback is of course welcome! Cheers, AstroSkipper4 points

FYI, I created a new, special version of uBlock Origin Legacy, especially with regard to @roytam1's browser editions, due to some recently occurred incompatibilities of my previous modded versions and presumably other old versions. More about that can be read in this post where I provide a download link for this new version called uBlock Origin Legacy 1.16.4.31b2-1.54.0. Cheers, AstroSkipper3 points

For MSFN, as in the comments, you need to download FontAwesome 4.7 and install it (drop it, really) into cindows/fonts. see https://msfn.org/board/topic/185045-supermium/?do=findComment&comment=1256779 As per other pages (if you don't care toidentify and download the font, you can relax the no donwload fonts rules user_pref("gfx.downloadable_fonts.enabled", false); // set *-* -change back to true user_pref("gfx.downloadable_fonts.woff2.enabled", false); // set *-* -change back to true2 points

They all are somewhat para-gov. now , the lines are vanished . Like in the case with vaxxines . Did you know , for example, CDC is a private company , yet the most think it's gov. ? The same with FBIbook , it's so powerful , it's like another gov. structure . So even though I liked your comment , I do not agree with you overall . No operator needs your private data . You forgot the times when SIM cards were at every train station without the need for the data from the person ? As for the gov., why do they need our data ? I mean, the taxes are in the goods already , every time you buy them , you pay your gov. , that should be it ! BTW , the war tax is still on , which is illegal .2 points

Do you think it's possible they will work on POS embedded 2009 ? Perhaps you know , is there a big difference betwen the driver model in embedded 2009 and XP, I kind of liked the POS embedded theme. Thanks2 points

I've done this already , as soon as I found it . I think the author wrote about the "z" , strange why he didn't notice . Anyway , I've tried that driver , I'm getting a blank black screen on my Haswell notebook . And an instant BSOD with XP 32 bit.2 points

Totally agree! The admin that runs a Proxomitron Forum picked it up over a decade ago while still on a college-kid budget, vowed to always keep it running, is not an ad-supported web site, has only single-digits visits per month, has never asked for donations, and true to his vow is still up-and-running to this day. And of course our own Roytam is another perfect example. I'll even throw AstroSkipper into that mix.1 point

Roy doesn't sign binaries, so that's one thing that lowers the costs. Not related to money, but he also seems to have a lot of energy to keep things going. My batteries need a lot of recharges in comparison, LOL! I also wondered about other community forums. So MSFN needs donations to keep going, but what about others that don't ask for donations? Are owners just rich? Or just have money to spare?1 point

I didn't notice that as I don't use these filters. I will have a look into that when I am at my desktop computer again. But I'm not at all surprised if incompatibilities occur at some point. Finally, I have transferred the filter lists from the webextension 1.49.2 to the legacy extension 1.16.4.31b2. In any case, thanks for reporting! @nicolaasjan! I found the crux of all these issues. Only copy and paste the content of the assets folder doesn't seem to be sufficient anymore. I am currently in the process of creating a new, special mod. More about that in my thread Extensions and custom buttons for UXP browsers - Corrections, modifications, adjustments, and special recommendations as soon as possible.1 point

@Dibya...sorry I missed your reply earlier. I never did get the LAN working on my XP install on the B360M. Don't really need it since I use XP mainly offline. I want to use the method of @Mov AX, 0xDEAD to do a kernel debug from a remote computer to see what is going on. I have done a lot of reversing in the past on Woodmann's forum (RCE) that no longer exists but I need a kernel debugger operating so I can hopefully trace into kernel function. With the old softice it was quite easy. Right now, I just need a version of acpi.sys that will work on the B760M. And maybe the SATA driver. @Dietmar has XP running already on the B760M.1 point

Well. I don't know about adguard (except for its lists), but thank you very much for sharing your knowledge over time. I can confirm that using UB in hard mode you can both have most (not all) of your current social media requirements, while allowing you to surf with relative privacy. I wonder, @Sampei.Nihira, what lists would you recommend for a beast like mypal68. Be well.1 point

Unlike earlier versions of Supermium, the now-current version based on Chromium 119 does support “vanilla, unmodified Windows Vista” and is therefore on topic in this once-great thread: https://github.com/win32ss/supermium/releases/tag/v119 Thank You Win32!1 point

No reason for that, since Supermium supports Vista x86 and Vista x64 is unsuitable for your Haswell hardware in any case. I’m certain you have other devices anyway, so I consider your post to be just another of your ad hominem attacks against me.1 point

Thank you very much, @we3fan! That's a confirmation I really needed. Unfortunately, I have to conclude that there is indeed a problem in my Windows XP partition (with all POSReady updates). And it doesn't seem to be related to the POSReady updates themselves as I assumed. Therefore, I have to investigate that again and this time much more deeply although I already did a lot of fixing and cleaning. Anyway! Great job! Thanks again for all your efforts!1 point

Another appeal! Is anyone here in the forum using Windows XP SP3 (32 Bit) Professional, fully updated including all POSReady Updates on real hardware without any virtualization (not running in a VM) like me? If so, please read this post for doing a short test of Glarysoft Startup Manager or Quick Startup! A screenshot of the main window showing application and Windows services would be very helpful! Thanks in advance! Greetings, AstroSkipper1 point

Autoruns is one of the rare tools to get a complete list of all important entries in terms of autostart programs, services, drivers, tasks, handlers, codecs and so on, sorted by categories. To be honest, I never felt the need to remove such entries shown in your screenshot. Any regular entries will stay in my system as they are. For me, Autoruns is a perfect tool in finding remnants of already uninstalled programs or services. I use it regularly for this purpose and for additional control.1 point

Thank you, didn't know that and definitely will keep in mind, that written invitation I got from his previous "asdf2345" account, and in his new account "K4sum1" he got even more unhinged and started to lure and invite users from here right in his public posts. This, for example. He wrote "I actually want to invite Jody to the forum". I took a screenshot, in case he would want to edit it. https://msfn.org/board/topic/182193-the-msfn-caf%C3%A9-a-penny-for-your-thoughts/?do=findComment&comment=12343881 point

Oh, you got yourself a clean French IP to register here ? Interesting. Yes, I thought he was Momiji at first. Thanks for clearing that out. And thank you for yet more confirmations that the banned asdf2345 is now regged under K4sum1. https://msfn.org/board/profile/438288-k4sum1/ Now let @Tripredacus know this. EDIT: I think I'm just gonna ignore the other part of your message, like I said, no need to bring negative crap from other "forums" here. As for me, don't envy me. Nothing good will come out of it.

Have you ever heard of KB977675 ? "The issue occurs because of a deadlock between a thread in Windows NT File System driver (Ntfs.sys) and a thread in the Autochk.exe program." I have something similar (from time to time) with Haswell and SP1/SP2 , I can summon task manager and just start the explorer , though. I wouldn't say it bothers me a lot , but sometimes it just hangs up or shows this "famous" logon failure. I'd like to add , RTM is much less affected. https://www.thewindowsclub.com/microsoft-releases-fix-for-windows-vista-black-screen1 point

Any idea why x86 systems don't have that problem with Haswell ? By the way , I'm not sure if you remeber , back in the day (I think in 2007 Vista already had the exact same black screen of death on some systems , they even had a patch , but it was deleted from servers. It had the SAME logon failure error. Some people wrote that the reason was the changed activation process , I do not know if that's true . I never had it with my Core Quad during that days.
