No prob., so you tried to add the device ID to the driver I gave? Well, indeed very sad, then.

Try this one - original mobile driver. https://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/197673/en-us/

Simple (without the "Ti") GeForce RTX 3050 Laptop GPU - should work.

... I did some further testing today and it appears that the cut-off value has been set at Chrome/100.0 (for the tests to work, one has to wipe out browser cache and "sciencedirect.com"-set cookies before testing a different "Chrome/*" value ); 100+ will load the site fine in 360EEv13.x/KMB , 99- will redirect to the "browser-out-of-date" page ; since this is a block purely based on UA-sniffin', I would argue they had blocked older clients for "security-related FUD"; I don't believe their servers risk any harm by allowing those older clients though, the tactics smell of forcing the user to switch to a more "secure" browser version (however, v100 is still far from v122 , the current Google Chrome) ...

Hi @JFX! Nice job, congratulations for your work. Updated Turkish language file for WinNTSetup v5.3.4 is ready. I would appreciate it if you add this to your work. Thanks.. Turkish language file for WinNTSetup v5.3.4.zip

Update notification! Panda Free Antivirus has been updated on 27.12.2023 and is now of version 22.02.01. Thus, I'll update my article and my list in terms of Panda Free Antivirus. Maybe. one of you can test the new version first of all under Windows XP SP3 32 bit to be sure it is still compatible as advertised here: https://www.pandasecurity.com/en/homeusers/windows-antivirus/ This is a quotation from this website: And again, such a confirmation would be great as we all already know, the proof is in the pudding. Cheers, AstroSkipper

You mentioned you preferred ungoogled because "Ungoogled version has more useful flags for user's convenience," so when i asked "which flags do you use," i meant "flags available in ungoogled Chromium, but not in vanilla Chrome." So: which flags, available in ungoogled Chromium, but not in vanilla Chrome, do you use? I was trying to recreate your voltage spike issue, and you don't watch vids in browsers, iirc. Should i reproduce an issue you've never experienced? But sure, when a GPU is actually used, core voltages go up from a state in which nothing is being done. This is perfectly normal & shouldn't cause concern. Your GPU will be fine, lots of us (most?) have HW acceleration enabled, that's simply not how GPUs die. Worry not, GPUs are hardy

This driver is from the same old R470 batch, it's just security crap they added to make it look like it's new. R470 batch is very old, it was released before the said GPU even existed.

Is this the card model, if so, I'm afraid you're outta luck. https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/geforce-rtx-3050-ti-mobile.c3778

You're welcome. Off-topic: You should also consider testing this newly released browser for Windows XP. https://github.com/win32ss/supermium And report any issues you encounter with it here (if you have a GitHub account ): https://github.com/win32ss/supermium/issues

Update notification! Malware Hunter has been updated on 05.03.2024 and is now available in version 1.180.0.800. I have tested this version on my system, and it is still compatible with Windows XP. Accordingly, I've updated my article and my list. Cheers, AstroSkipper

Which version do you refer to? And don't forget this thread is about security programmes under Windows XP only. The last time, when I installed Panda Free Antivirus under Windows XP 32-bit, all was fine. No problems at all.

That's very wise. Some combinations of these programmes are possible but more than one real-time scanner can cause problems as you surely know.

Spoof to another fake agent, go here, and you will see - spoofing of UA is obsolete these days. https://chromiumchecker.com/

Look at my account, I have 2 tutorials, but it's only for Vista and nVidia, not AMD, so it's unfortunately off-topic here.

This code is held secret by the companies nVIDIA and AMD, anyone can try to find the papers on them without any results,

I said I ported them, not wrote. And all of that because of the code leftovers. But as of now, even Windows 7 is dropped for several years, what you see today in the form of Windows 7 releases, they are just "security" driver updates based on old drivers from the year 2020 or so.

No, I meant the code inside the divers, not the OS, I think I wrote about it pretty clear, no?

NTOSKRNL Emu_Extender Library of missing functions for Windows XP/2003/Vista/7 NTOSKRNL.EXE Project is intended to help in porting drivers from Windows 7/8/8.1/10 for work with Windows XP/2003/Vista/7 How-To: Compile sources to make ntoskrn8.sys Make corrections to target driver XXX.sys so that it loads ntoskrn8.sys instead of the original ntoskrnl.exe If XXX.sys is driver made for Windows 8, change security_cookie to random value, security_cookie is constant 0x4EE640BB(x32) / 0x32A2DF2D992B(x64) inside file, change only first match !

Found a polyfill for that and tried it. Unfortunately, I think my polyfill needs a polyfill of its own: renderView: "TypeError: ctx.getTransform(...).invertSelf is not a function" viewer.js:9719:19 "invertSelf?" Good grief....

That is certainly possible. I'm sure it was part of Chase's decision to require 109 (although only 106 on Android), since Chrome 109 was the oldest version to get the WebP fix last year. But again, at least Chase can argue that they're trying to protect their customers' money; what's Science Direct trying to protect? As you noted, a Web server is at no risk from older browsers. But I bet a lot of Web developers don't understand that. I think a lot of folks, even cybersecurity experts, don't really understand cybersecurity. They just know there are "vulnerabilities" and don't delve into what exactly is "vulnerable" and what isn't - so they just blindly try to close off every "vulnerability" they can get away with.

Panda free antivirus online installer. It downloads the necessary archives and when it try to install the program before the end it says the program cannot be installed. Vista x64 OS

i have this problem also https://github.com/win32ss/supermium/issues/347

I have a x64 Vista so i suppose it is compatible

Most likely, Science Direct didn't develop their Web site at all; they just hired some Web developer to do it, and the Web developer is still doing things the old way (UA sniffing). Chase.com is guilty of this too, but at least you don't expect better from bankers. In (sort of) defense of UA sniffing, if the site wouldn't work, it's probably better to sniff the UA and give a message than to just have the Web site not work properly and frustrate the user. But in that case, they shouldn't require a newer version than what's actually needed for the site to work. Since the site apparently runs fine with Chromium 87, they don't need to be requiring (say) Chromium 109. I suspect the developers tested with 109 (or whatever version), saw that it worked, and just blindly put in the version that they tested with as the requirement. Lazy, but who's going to complain (other than us)? Anyway, thanks for the tip on a SSUAO extension for Chrome. I've been wanting one, but the user agent extensions I've seen recommended here haven't been site-specific.

Yes, previous calendar month. I suppose what I really meant was, "within the past 30 days or so...." Rats. 2.16 legacy didn't work on Serpent 52 either. Web console says something about "ctx.GetTransform is not a function." 'Twas worth a try, though....

Standard version of 2.14 works; legacy version of 2.15 works; neither version of 2.16 works. I actually haven't tried the standard version of 2.15 yet, so it's possible that it will work too - but as long as the legacy version works, I'm happy. These experiments were actually with the Serpent 55 build from Feb. 8, 2024 (i.e., earlier this month); I haven't tried them with UXP (Serpent 52) but I expect that, if it works with 55, it works with 52 as well. Of course I'll confirm that before I publish anything.

Well, as usual, I was wrong - the first version of pdf.js that doesn't work (either regular or "legacy" version) is actually 2.16.105, the last published build of the V2 series, and by implication, the last version that does work is 2.15.349. So 2.15 appears to be the limit, at least without polyfills of some kind. Mozilla appears to have updated their "legacy" translator between those two versions: the "legacy" version of 2.16.105 is smaller than the "legacy" version of 2.15.349, even though the regular version is slightly larger, which says to me that Mozilla removed some translations and/or polyfills from their legacy translator between those versions. This may account for 2.16.105 no longer working. Still, 2.15 is five years newer than 1.7 (July 31, 2022 vs. early 2017) and supports more of the functionality of Adobe Reader, albeit with a UI resembling Mozilla's post-Australis UI, Photon. Heck, even 2.5.207 (last version with the Australis-like UI) is three years newer (June 1, 2020). So we're overdue for an update.

I don't get a crash when scrolling to comments section on YouTube in latest Serpent 52.

On one XP partition, I am using Malwarebytes Premium 3.5.1.2522, and on the other one, Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Pro 1.75.0.1300 due to the lifetime license I own for many years. If I didn’t have this lifetime license and preferred a free antimalware programme, I would choose Panda Free Antivirus on Windows XP.

It looks like Ultra Virus Killer has also broken compatibility with Windows Vista, although only XP is mentioned in Important notes at UVK homepage. Thank you for the information Shelby!

On one XP partition, I am using Malwarebytes Premium 3.5.1.2522, and on the other one, Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Pro 1.75.0.1300 due to the lifetime license I own for many years.

Here is what I already stated about AVG AntiVirus Free months ago:: My advice: Forget about AVG!

no i intall them find the problem and unistall them

Thanks! Which version of Ultra Virus Killer did you install in Windows XP? As you may know, the last XP-compatible version is 11.9.8.0 as I stated in my article about Ultra Virus Killer. When I tested this version for writing my article, I didn't get such a message.

Where did you get this information? It usually comes in two versions, the free version Malware Hunter and the commercial version Malware Hunter Pro. As already described in my article, the features real-time protection and automatic updates are only available in Malware Hunter Pro. Actually, Glarysoft Malware Hunter Pro has a 30-day free trial period. After that, you must purchase a license for the software to use all its professional features. That means you can use it as an on demand scanner when the trial period has expired.

Please, translate such kind of messages! This is an English speaking forum, and not all are proficient in the Greek language.

This is really very helpful, thank you for the detailed and such factual report!

i had some time to look at it his function is bugged up basicly he write it himself "// hacky but works: small number is command id, large is submenu (a pointer)"" that indicates he tryed to trick it and had to do "hacky solutions" he use a endless while true loop with ends escapes and continues, also goto´s,calls to the same functions in a function, and then seperators for his menu to fix how he called it "bad seperators" this ended up in a os specific solution you useally dont do that because the operating system can might change the relevant codes over time (such as 7 to 10, or 98 to nt) - something like this already happend in the past but the solution to this problem is possible as the author use multiple fixes all over around (probaly to compensate the problems) it is easy to add that fix - anyways it actually was a bit weird to find it out in win10 its just a flag, that was found like very quickly - but no in xp it didnt do that and gave very weird results even turned off xp was working ok while on 10 it did what it suppose to do - it was turned off as the code suppose to was changed to let me know if it works now! the .avif file (and heic) format dont work for me, neither on xp nor on 10 nor on 7 (both unchanged from the official download page and the changed version) https://www.file-upload.net/download-15277606/SumatraPDF_WINXP_3.5.2_3.zip.html https://www.mediafire.com/file/a4mtyf33ozs6q63/SumatraPDF_WINXP_3.5.2_3.zip/file

The article provided by you is weird, it doesn't even have the screencaps of spying connections, whereas mine does, with proof. So maybe yours isn't finished ? Therefore, not be taken seriously.

The good news is that Mozilla Firefox is merely “high” spyware according to this source: https://spyware.neocities.org/articles/firefox Mozilla Firefox is not based on chrome, thus not relevant to this discussion. But I agree with all of you, it's also a spyware.

Yes, agree, provided by you page is weird, it doesn't even have the screencaps of spying connections, whereas mine does.
