Please post if you aware of such projects, just to clarify, only real versions of these browsers are of interest. Thanks.

You tore these words out of context, by "all lost one time" I only meant those I named, including your account.

I have been using this trick to execute all more recent versions than 360Chrome v11 in Windows 2000 compatibility mode from the very first. But it doesn't work for the DeepL website in 360Chrome v13.5. Using ProxHTTPSProxy solves indeed this problem. While doing so, I noticed some strange effects. Enabling the System Proxy mode in the Proxy Switcher extension doesn't work in the same way as enabling the Manual Proxy mode which of course has to be configured correctly. Although DeepL was shown properly in 360Chrome v13.5 with the padlock and green coloured https, the ProxHTTPSProxy logging window shows clean, green connection entries only in the Manual Proxy mode. Thus, I changed some proxy settings in the IE8 and, however, got finally clean, green connections entries in the System Proxy mode, too. In any case, that was the actual reason for my last recommendation to use the Manual Proxy mode instead of the System Proxy mode in the Proxy Switcher extension to avoid having to change the proxy settings in IE8.

I'd even say @jumperlost two times already, because there's not such word. https://msfn.org/board/topic/102111-change-a-letter-game/?do=findComment&comment=1265939

Well, I tend to disagree, if it's ported without the bloat adding, without spyware, I mean, only its API changed, why it's a knock-off?

... Consult previously linked documentation, e.g. https://findproxyforurl.com/pac-functions/ In your sample case, and to include all subdomains, something like: if (dnsDomainIs(host, ".example.com") or (the one you found yourself): if (shExpMatch(host, "*.example.com") Both two above will include, of course, "www.example.com" as hostname, but won't include just "example.com" ; in such a case: if (dnsDomainIs(host, "example.com") || dnsDomainIs(host, ".example.com") For a set of completely different domains, use the sample syntax above (using either "dnsDomainIs(host," or "shExpMatch(host," for your included hostnames) ... FWIW, below is a PAC script I was using in ca. 2010 to access UK TV channels (BBC iPlayer, ITV, Ch4 and some UK radio stations owned by Bauer): function FindProxyForURL(url, host) { alert('url: \'' + url + '\', host: \'' + host + '\''); if ( shExpMatch(host, "fig.bbc.co.uk") || shExpMatch(url, "*.edgesuite.net/*") || shExpMatch(url, "*.akamaized.net/*") || shExpMatch(url, "*.bbcfmt.vo.llnwi.net/*") || shExpMatch(url, "*.llnwd.net/*") || shExpMatch(url, "*playlists.bbc.co.uk/*") || shExpMatch(url, "*.bbc.co.uk/mediaselector/*") || shExpMatch(host, "*.bidi.bbc.co.uk") || shExpMatch(host, "*.bidi.live.bbc.co.uk") || shExpMatch(url, "*ais.channel4.com/*") || shExpMatch(url, "*mercury.itv.com/*") || shExpMatch(url, "*mediaplayer.itv.com/flash/playlists/*") || shExpMatch(url, "*magni.itv.com/*") || shExpMatch(url, "*tx.whatson.com/*") ) { return "PROXY 86.25.218.xxx:3128"; } else { return "DIRECT"; } } BTW, it's totally worthless today, so, hopefully, I won't get in trouble by just posting it here ; just a small note, though: shExpMatch(url, "*.bbc.co.uk/mediaselector/*") || At some point, Chromium and Firefox, for security/privacy reasons ( ), stopped supporting URL subdirectories inside the url RegExp syntax, so this filter isn't correct by recent PAC/browser standards ... ... In those cases, the sites are serving mixed content (some over HTTPS and some over plain HTTP) and this is considered bad web practice today (e.g., recent Chrome will block the insecure content by default) - if the insecure content (HTTP) is being served on the page from a third party domain, I don't see where your problem lies ; if they're indeed serving mixed content from the same first party domain, then what "external website" are you talking about there? In the last case, you could forward only the secure content over to ProxyMII via, e.g. if (shExpMatch(url, "https://*.example.com/*") || etc,, whereas non-secure content from "http://*.example.com/*" will be fetched directly through browser... ... What he meant was that non-tech users should be extra careful how they install+configure HTTPSProxy (basically, the user custom rules inside its config.ini file), because any potential errors there may and will result in loss of connection for the client app (browser) ... If you do want to talk about security per se, you are running Windows XP, aren't you? ... And a browser (360EEv13.5) based on old Chromium core (86), aren't you? In the same vein, ProxyMII uses a deprecated CPython version and also deprecated Python modules (because their current versions aren't compatible with that older Python and/or XP itself) to achieve its functions, so do you get the drift ? When I try the "legacy" login page, I'm redirected to a https://web1.carparts-cat.com/Login.aspx page; as I said, under Vista SP2 32-bit, ALL appear correct vis-à-vis the secure connection: What does an XP SP3 x86 user see in the above scenario? FWIW, "http://web1.carparts-cat.com/" ALWAYS redirects to HTTPS here, so what makes one believe the connection succeeds but data is transferred unencrypted?

One core, only one task at once, I agree. But there is more necessary for a complete comparison. However, I won't go into more detail at this point, as it would unfortunately be off-topic.

Of course it has! And I'm closely watching the topic. @jumper, @EliraFriesnan, earlier @XPercenioland @NotHereToPlayGames - all lost one time.

Thank you, good! Finally found it on streaming,

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.

Crass

Thanks but I looked first It's not MS, without SAB : No HR, no “ouvert” (open)

I myself have no clue just how to define "ported" versus "knock-off". To me, NETSCAPE NAVIGATOR was not the "first" web browser (a program called "WorldWideWeb" was!) but it WAS the first for PUBLIC USE. EVERYTHING ever since is a "knock-off" of NETSCAPE NAVIGATOR.

Starting point for the Part II is here. From Elira's post: Stale

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 always run Serpent in single-process mode as it is the only mode in New Moon 28. Furthermore, I think a real single-core CPU is not fully comparable with a multi-core CPU where only one core is enabled. Anyway! New Moon 28 works great but I have to agree with your observation on MSFN. Writing comments has become much worse than it was in the past. Many delays when entering letters. The whole forum editor has become more of a chronical disease. And I can't see any progress in the last few months that would represent any improvement.

This is all very confusing, so Supermium isn't really fully Ungoogled, even the switch applied?

... 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...).

Incorrect, SSE4A is AMD-only instruction set containing 4 instructions which are not available in SSE4.1 and subsequent SSE4.2, collectively known as full SSE4 set. SSE4.1 is being targeted by SSE4 build of Thorium, so @Anbima should stick with SSE3 version on his old AMD.

Just a little reminder. This thread is about proxies. I believe there is no need to use Thorium together with ProxHTTPSProxy. @Dave-H Can you please move your conversation with @Anbima to the Thorium thread? A bit offtopic is normal and ok but I think this is the wrong place here. The Thorium thread is more suitable. Thanks!

What's good about this is that I always find time to smoke a cigarette and drink a cup of strong coffee or East Frisian tea.

Correct, compact characterisation. It looks like the browser world is about to shrink a little. At least for me. Chrome 127 is definitely the end for me. A browser like that has to be avoided. And there seem to be many users who feel the same way. The reason for this is, of course, manifest 3 and the associated restrictions on extensions, which are particularly tragic for content blockers like uBlock Origin. Personally, I'm happy to use New Moon 28, Serpent and Mypal 68 and will continue to do so for as long as possible.

Thanks! Yes, I do, unfortunately it's uninstallable, and Enchantress, I sometimes play that charachter.

There is no need to use ProxHTTPSProxy for all internet connections, even in Windows XP. Mypal 68, 360Chrome, Thorium, Supermium and all @roytam1's browser editions are capable of the TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3 protocols. However, the proxy is actually only needed for those programmes which are not capable of these protocols but need them in these days. Same applies to WU/MU, for example. Therefore, I use ProxHTTPSProxy only occasionally when really needed. And such cases happen, of course. Which sites do you need this proxy in 360Chrome for? Which sites appear to be unsafe for you in 360Chrme?

The PM forum can take a leaf out of MSFN's book. We welcome everyone. You can get help here even if you don't use Windows XP or other older operating systems. For example, my thread "Extensions and custom buttons for UXP browsers - Corrections, modifications, adjustments, and special recommendations" is open to anyone who uses legacy extensions, whether in New Moon 28, Pale Moon or whatever compatible browser. I also don't care whether the poster in question uses Windows 7, Windows 10 or even the crappy Windows 11. He will not be verbally punished in any way, even if I personally do not favour these OSes. That's how it has to be. But these Fright Wing and trollbat types from the PM forum won't understand that. Their horizons aren't good enough for that.

I use "USB Safely Remove" because I had it when I ran XP which was right up to just a month ago. It's a "must" for me because the built-in modern Windows USB eject does not power down the USB device first, the built-in will halt all read/write activity but it forces you to remove the USB device WHILE POWERED.

For those who have missed, "Zentimo xStorage Manager" is a re-branded "USB Safely Remove" from XP days, both made by Crystal Rich Ltd, 194356, Russian Federation, Saint Petersburg, Kompozitorov 4-132. It even has an absolutely identical UI! Now, I wonder, why would they go with a new name? In any case, third party tools may heavily compromise security of Windows, especially when there's a simple way built in modern Windows, starting with Vista.
