Good to know. I will also change that in my next release.

Our 26100.1 ISO came from a trusted U.S. source. It is a digital license, but we don't like to cheat (too much anyway).

In general, absolutely unnecessary. If Avast can't be removed from Windows inside, no matter whether in normal or safe mode, you can do this from outside. I did that in the past to remove locked registry entries which couldn't be deleted from Windows inside, not even by using Avast Clear in safe mode.

A major progress -" involuntary connections to Google services, which will be pared back in response to users' complaints." https://github.com/win32ss/supermium/issues/600

Fixed! "If using --ungoogled Chrome Store cannot be used" https://github.com/win32ss/supermium/issues/593

In France one can get seriously beaten up for a talk like that.

I disabled them all about 17 years ago on Vista, and even earlier on XP, lost nothing.

Those $5 keys are as much cheating as using digital licenses…

I can forgot about XP, better ask @AstroSkipper, the guy who knows everything! For Vista - Disable HDD Performance Counters Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\PerfDisk\Performance] "Disable Performance Counters"=dword:00000001

The irony is, the original idea behind Pale Moon, waaay back before XP even, at least as I understood it, was that it was supposed to just be Firefox optimized for Windows, so it was supposed to be (and seemed to be, on my ancient Win 98 PC) faster than vanilla Firefox. No new or different features, just better performance. This was like PM 3.6 or so, but it sure seems like they went astray somewhere along the line. And enabling AVX or whatever in 64-bit builds isn't going to make up for it. I tried disabling multiprocess mode on St 55 on Win 7 and had a similar experience. Couldn't even type a post on MSFN at 10-20 seconds per letter, with one CPU core maxed out! So, even with a single core, you might have had better luck with e10s forced on. It's my opinion that the OS version makes little difference in performance, assuming the application (browser or whatever) will run on both OSes. The app might be faster if optimized for a newer version, but in that case it's unlikely to run on the older version at all. It's mostly the hardware, rather than the OS, that provides good performance.

I have 5! Only 3 machines but 5 licenses. Out of curiosity what do you like about Iot Enterprise LTSC? How are you activating it? massgrave.dev hwid?

Downloaded and installed the 24H2 Cumulative Update for 26100.712 (KB5037850) on our Iot Ent LTSC installs. No problems with SAB. Purchased license 3-pack on the 20th. I would urge everyone to buy at least one license and support Tihiy. Jim

... As I understood this, the suggestion was to use Thorium standalone (presumably because Thorium comes also with its own CA store/is less prone than 360EEv13.5 under WIndows XP to fail on secure connections... But yes, thanks to Anbima, last pages on this thread went like this: 360EEv13.5 standalone -> 360EEv13.5 + ProxyMII -> 360EEv13.5 + ProxyMII + Local PAC script -> 360EEv13.5 + ProxyMII + Local PAC script + Chromium extension(s) -> 360EEv13.5 + ProxyMII + Local PAC script (without extension) -> 360EEv13.5 + ProxyMII (standalone, without PAC script) -> 360EEv13.5 + ProxyMII + extension -> Thorium standalone (for his "problematic" HTTPS connections) -> exclusively Thorium-related queries -> ... IMHO, ProxyMII / ProxHTTPSProxy was the constituent with the lesser percentage in these recent discussions ; the "issue" could well have been posted in one of the 360EE threads ... FWIW, if the issue encountered is the infamous "red-X" instead of a green padlock on some HTTPS connections on 360EEv13.5 under XP, this is an already known "issue" and can well be a "red herring" (or not, but no-one posted something definitive on the matter...); IIRC, you can restore the padlock on these connections by running the 360chrome.exe executable in win2k compatibility (or something in this vein - have never faced this issue under Windows Vista SP2 x86 myself...).

As I said, deepl is not important because no sensitive data is transmitted. DeepL was only an example. When using 360Chrome together with ProxHTTPSProxy, then either the settings in IE8 have to be changed or the Manual Proxy option has to be used by Proxy Switcher. All this can be clearly seen in ProxHTTPSProxy's logging window. BTW, the web interface of DeepL is broken in 360Chrome. It looks like a CSS issue.

Burger Chrome & Google user here, AI overviews enabled. No ads thus far (desktop Chrome, have disabled UO & refreshed to check). AI results are pretty good -- exactly what i'm looking for ~95% of the time, hallucination-free thus far (not even once), info's no more outdated than all search results. OTOH, not searching for politics/current events, those might be right-think du jour. Don't miss out! ♫ I hope someday you'll join us/And the world will live as one♫

I have to say as someone who's used Malwarebytes (Premium) for many years now, that I have never been aware of it producing false positives to justify its existence!

Probably, the user isn't a native English speaker, I get this a lot here, but then again, it's an international forum, what else one would expect? @NotHereToPlayGames, in other words, win32ss wrote he will reduce the number of hostile connections, but won't eliminate them all, due to the public requests. Complaints, in this case, mean users aren't happy with the fully Ungoogled version. They still want the Google connections to leak data. Is it clearer?

Browsers don't get streams in containers, both audio and video streams are served separately.

No, those are my screencaps from MPC-HC (streaming youtube, but then again, I get the same stats if I simply download them with a saving extension in Thorium.

Someone, that much invested into security, wouldn't even visit Xitter in the first place.

Which developer do you mean? Please, be a bit more precise! If you mean the extension developer, I assume he warns the user not to misconfigure the Proxy Switcher extension and not to use unsecure web proxies. Which proxy do you mean? If you mean ProxHTTPSProxy, this local proxy is as secure as Windows XP and direct connection is.

I had to create for each domain a separate, new IF query otherwise it wouldn't have worked in my installation.

@Anbima didn't say anything about that. If one doesn't make clear announcements, one can't expect to get exactly the information one needs. We are not clairvoyants. If the PAC script contains a different URL than the one you want to call up, you don't have to be surprised that it doesn't work.

I actually think what he's trying to do is for one.example.com two.example.com three.example.com www.example.com and what you are proposing will only work for example.com

Proxy Switcher and Manager 0.5.0 is the last compatible to 360Chrome due to the manifest change from 2 to 3 and works great. I tested Direct, Manual Proxy (set here the local proxy 127.0.0.1:8079) and PAC Script, and all worked as it should. So, a working PAC script (not a PAC file but a PAC script under the section Inline) can be inserted directly in 360Chrome. No need to do that in IE8 and no need to activate ProxHTTPSProxy in the system proxy settings of IE8 by inserting 127.0.0.1:8079 there. Simply call up ProxHTTPSProxy.EXE directly from the main directory of my package instead of StartProxy.exe! And that means by using this extension you can also use @cmalex's ProxyMII if you prefer a pure proxy without any comfort. BTW, all that was done in 360Chrome in a few minutes.

That's exactly why I support the idea of MSFN, and actually the reason for all my efforts here. In my case, let Windows XP live forever or at least as long as possible.

I checked again all three extennsions. My favourite is Autoplay Whitelist. This one memorises all permitted websites in a whitelist.

What makes you think I didn't read it? It was a personal thought of a random Reddit poster, while I got you a >Solved< page explanation. "Spotify is not working under VPN. I'm getting 403 error. I'm using my work VPN and it's always been OK." https://community.spotify.com/t5/Desktop-Windows/403-Error-when-using-VPN/m-p/5470802#M114786 How then you explain the same man not getting any errors with work VPN? I have a hunch it's related to the new fingerprinting techniques that are working differently with Thorium.

"File in latest build detected as executable malware?!" Here are the results of Virus Total. https://www.reddit.com/r/ThoriumBrowser/comments/1cozm0h/file_in_latest_build_detected_as_executable/?rdt=41908

You're wrong. First, I didn't use VPN, second, it says: the page "isn't not working", when someone is blocked, the error code is "403 FORBIDDEN". I get 429, not 403, please pay attention to what I write. 403 Error when using VPN, again my error was 429, not 403. https://community.spotify.com/t5/Desktop-Windows/403-Error-when-using-VPN/td-p/5470781 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_403 https://support.google.com/chrome/thread/214178109/what-should-i-do-with-error-403-when-i-user-vpn?hl=en

Is there a way to run TEKKEN 8 on dx11?

Here are 2 photos of my Shuttle Hot 433 board, with running full XP SP3 on it. I notice, that even from version 1...3 of this board, they have different IDE controllers, so you cant switch from one board to next with the same XP SP3 installation. This strange behavior I have never seen for any IDE controller before. Next step is to build an full Setup XP486.iso. I make a try, to overcome also there the crazy opcode cmpxchg8b and also the "Unknown Processor" hurdle. Any help is welcome, which files on the xp.iso have to be changed, for to kick out those checks. It is not so much difficult I think. My files without any cmpxchg8b are quite stable, anyway I will update them and I also make an english version Dietmar

@roytam1 Yesssssaaa, I got it, XP SP3 on my Shuttle Hot 433 board and AMD 100MHZ 486 cpu Dietmar PS: Boot time to desktop is about 2 min. Via F8 you have to enable VGA modus. New ntoskrnl.exe with modd from @roytam1 https://ufile.io/peux59x6

My partner and I just built an Alder Lake system. I installed Windows Vista Ultimate x64 SP2 with the Extended Kernel and it works great! There is absolutely no drift-like behavior as seen on Haswell (4th gen) thru Tiger Lake (11th gen). Here's a screenshot: Just like Windows 7, the processor cores do not show up in Device Manager, however it is recognized in System Properties. Ethernet drivers are also currently unavailable, however since I am friends with win32 and speak to him on a regular basis, I asked him if he could possibly get the ethernet drivers working. He said he would have to add functions to NDIS & ntoskrnl, but he could do it at a later time. Right now, I use USB wifi which works fine but I could just install a Vista-compatible PCI ethernet card if I wanted to. Specs: Asrock Z690 PG Riptide Motherboard Intel Core i7 12700KF 32 GB RAM NVIDIA GeForce 980ti GPU w/modded 398.11 drivers by win32 Samsung 870 EVO 2TB SSD Windows Vista Ultimate SP2 x64 I may try UEFI at a later date with UEFIseven, but for the time being I am using Legacy boot with no problems. Windows Vista/7 also do not properly turbo the P & E Cores, however enabling High Performance in the BIOS simply makes the cores turbo up constantly so it runs great with no performance issues. I dualboot with Windows Server 2012, which does turbo the cores properly (and has drivers for everything, including ethernet).
