I do, and you'd better not touch the veteran wolf of the internet. With your rep of 3.2K you're supposed to be at least somewhat *tech savvy*, and know how to use WinHex, no? Well, despite your usual disrespectful talk, I do. Now use a tutorial on how to get to this. Need help? Get back to me.

With modern browsers, they are "taught" to work with odd links, so like I said, it can and will try to connect. I think, there's still a discussion can be found on how they (ISP and whatnot) spot Ungoogled chrome, it broadcasts rubbish to the net because the developer simply broke Google links, like you, but didn't clean them up.

You can't, but the browser isn't "familiar" with randomly broken links, so it still tries to go there, whereas it was coded to properly deal with the address of 0.0.0.0. Meaning - attempt nothing when it "sees" the zeroes, since it's been a standard for many decades.

Of course it does work. Fast: "0.0.0.0 is not an address of anything". Slow: "127.0.0.1 is the loopback Internet protocol (IP) address also referred to as the “localhost.” The address is used to establish an IP connection to the same machine or computer being used by the end-user." And redirection can't be faster. All because. "You can't send data to 0.0.0.0 or actively open a TCP connection to 0.0.0.0 because there is nothing there; 0.0.0.0 isn't even an unreachable or non routable address" All quotes from here: https://superuser.com/questions/949428/whats-the-difference-between-127-0-0-1-and-0-0-0-0

Hello @Fightingfalcon! I'm glad to hear that. I have never installed or used Epyrus. What are the system requirements? As far as I know, Epyrus is a Thunderbird 52-based mail client that builds against UXP. uBlock Origin Legacy is fully compatible with Thunderbird 52, Interlink and MailNews. If the developer of Epyrus made changes preventing uBlock Origin Legacy to run properly in Epyrus, then these changes have to be reverted by the Epyrus' developer and nobody else to restore compatibility. IMHO, it therefore doesn't seem to be a problem of uBlock Origin but a problem of Epyrus. If the Epyrus developer turns you away and tells you to contact me, then he just doesn't want to deal with your problem. And please, don't forget I am not the developer of uBlock Origin who is gorhill and unfortunately stopped development a few years ago! I am just providing here a special mod of the legacy extension uBlock Origin to fix a couple of issues and to keep it as up-to-date as possible.

Good afternoon, I ran into the problem that when you hover the mouse over any window, its preview opens behind any active window. In order for it to open correctly, you need to click to the taskbar.

Research and development for a new version of PCSX2 XP, as well as a Windows 7 backport for the latest version of PCSX2, starts today as a personal project. More information available on my latest blog post: http://neonfloppy.sytes.net/blog/2025-01-12/ - Both backports will be entirely released as free and open source, with no binary blobs, features locked behind payment or anything similar. You are always welcome to make a donation once the final version releases, if you personally find it useful. - Compatibility with Windows Vista, Vista with Extended Kernel, 7 RTM, 8.0, 8.1 and all their server counterparts will be had in mind during development so their users can also enjoy from the new features and fixes whenever possible in each respective backport. However, Windows 2000 is not in the plans due to complexities involved.

I meant insert https://0.0.0.0 into Google lytics, not home page, And home page, simply edit it out completely, the whole string with the quotes, what's stopping you?

It sounds very racist! You, yes you, without any shred of shame, discussed, and made a gazillion of topics on how to remove the telemetry from the Chinese-made Extreme Explorer 360! So, how discussing how to break/modify Tampermonkey's telemetry is any different? Oh, those famous double standards!

It's just not different enough for non-100% scaling.

Not really! If a developer of an extension had never supported and didn't want to support a certain software, it is therefore unfortunately not a problem of an extension developer. The request was done in terms of a legacy extension but the corresponding software does not support older legacy Windows operation systems such as Windows XP. None of this makes any sense to me. That's why I'm not interested. For Windows 7 and up, there are so much modern email clients available which fully satisfy all the needs of a user. Thus, no real need for another one. And isn't the developer of Epyrus this athenian200 who speaks so incredibly respectfully and kindly about us here: I wouldn't lift a finger for a disrespectful guy like that. Right!

Nope! Epyrus is a Thunderbird 52-based mail client that builds against UXP (official statement). The legacy extension uBlock Origin works in the email clients Thunderbird 52, Interlink and MailNews. If due all modifications made by the developer of Epyrus the compatibility has been broken, then this can't be the problem of the developer of uBlock Origin who I am not. BTW, forget about Epyrus! Neither the installer version nor the portable version is compatible with Windows XP. Thus, I am definitely out, and that's how the game works.

For using my mod uBlock Origin Legacy, you have to download the xpi file from this thread and to perform a clean install. All is described in detail in my article uBlock Origin Legacy - A special mod by @AstroSkipper where you'll always find the most recent version. You're welcome! And thank you for your kind words!

FYI, I already created an update version of uBlock Origin 1.16.4.31. I made a lot of changes. I even installed and tested this version in Serpent 55. @Mathwiz When searching for extension updates in this browser, an update to the webextension of uBlock Origin is no longer offered. In any case, I am now back in testing mode. Cheers, AstroSkipper

Right! Of course, I know that the browser checks for extension updates via the pref extensions.update.url. That was exactly what I restored in Mypal 68 months ago, described in my article Restoring the manual and automatic update function for extensions in Mypal 68.13.3b. But, I mainly use New Moon 28, and there is no support for webextensions at all. BTW, I never activated the automatic updates in any @roytam1's browsers. And TBH, I never thought Serpent 55 would look for webextension updates for a legacy extension. But as I already mentioned, I can make my mod/fork such unique as I did in the case of my fork Check My IP Address & Location 1.3. Then, updates won't be found for it any longer. PS: And the more I think about it , the more I am now inclined to do just that. One more thing @VistaLover, I totally forgot to say thanks for your deeper insights on that matter!

@Mathwiz Very strange! In my latest release uBlock Origin 1.16.4.31, I have removed the auto-update function of the internal list of all preselected filter lists and the updateURL inside the install.rdf file. Therefore, my fork can't actually initiate any auto-update actions. Did you install uBlock Origin 1.16.4.31 after a complete cleaning of all remnants as I described in my article? Very important is to delete the ublock0.sqlite file in the profile subfolder extension-data before installing uBO. And don't install uBO on top of an already existing installation! It won't work properly. I personally do not use the auto-update function of the Add-ons Manager in @roytam1's browser editions. All update processes are done by me manually. Therefore, this never happened to me.

It was just a typo in my article, which I already corrected. The maxVersion in the install.rdf was of course correctly set by me to 32.*. And frankly, I would never set a maxVersion to 32.0 inside an install.rdf file. That usually does not make any sense. But thanks for your hint!

You're welcome! I will examine this more deeply. Maybe, you are right, and the filter list "Spam404" is indeed a bit outdated and has therefore been replaced by the filter list "Phishing URL Blocklist" in the webextensions of uBO. We will see. I will also check this later. With all this, it is always very important to make sure that new lists are really compatible with uBlock Origin Legacy.
