Somewhat annoying is that some Youtube videos now start with an unskippable ad despite using ad blockers. I didn't know if there was a thread in regards to this in a non GD location. While I find the ad intrusion to be extremely annoying, it is still funny to me that the ad I see on Youtube videos is for a paid ad blocker.1 point

Update: the plugin "RightToClick 2.9.6" is the one that was blocking New Moon using Cloudflare. I don't use it often so disabled it. Can get by just by turning off Javascript if a page is screwing with me.1 point

I search youtube on Google site:youtube.com. Search on the site itself brings up very approximate results that repeat. Too bad num=X argument just stopped working on Google. Maybe they read MSFN.1 point

Good to hear. I use 55 myself, but I also keep a copy of 52 handy. The different names arose back in the early days. Originally Serpent was just a generic name used by "unbranded" builds of Basilisk; i.e., if you or I built the browser on our own PC, it would be called "Serpent" too. Basilisk was the "branded" name used for the official version distributed by MoonChild Productions. For several years the folks at MoonChild Productions expressed great irritation that some users sought support for @roytam1's Serpent builds at Basilisk's Web site (then run by MCP), so we were all taught to be careful never to refer to Roytam's builds as "Basilisk" and risk driving more Serpent users there.1 point

Discover.com works with r3dfox as-is, so no SSUAO needed there. (Edge or Thorium users aren't so lucky; Discover seems to demand a quite recent Chromium engine. Supermium would probably do the trick but I haven't tried it.) I see several sites with this SSUAO: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64; rv:128.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/128.0 This works with chase.com as well. So I guess it was the r3dfox bit that it didn't like after all. Win 7 doesn't seem to bother it.1 point

If it doesn't work either, then I can add some checks to narrow down the problem. Btw: You got surprisingly far in the booting process. Once the graphic issue is solved, you will most likely see the graphical user interface of Windows 2000.1 point

New version now released, Supermium 132.0.6834.224 R4. This release of Supermium includes various changes and improvements, including: (#1412) - Option to disable autoplay introduced in chrome://flags, #disable-autoplay (#1403) - --force-dark-mode option introduced to deal with possible issues with white flashes in dark mode. However, some flashes may still appear due to caching of previous page views (#1445) - chrome://version uses Supermium branding (#1441, #1433, #1398, #1400) - Small changes to default metrics, particularly affecting v109 and CR23 tab styles (#1438) - New tab button fixed in place (and the tab close button should no longer overlap favicons) (#1411) - Download link now appears by default in chrome://downloads, as opposed to referrer link (issue unassigned) - #disable-gpu-driver-bug-workaroundsnow available in chrome://flags Some small mitigations have also been introduced for crashes in portable configurations on Windows 7.1 point

I have an answer - I could care less whether their registration's working, not working. I simply don't register on pirate forums, I can allow myself to buy a legit OS once in a twenty years. Therefore, no need to waste time on pirated content. Mentioning of that forum is banned by @Tripredacus.1 point

It was already explained by @D.Draker, and it's because in Supermium, the author always "enhances" the colour vibrancy, that's it. In standard Chrome (or CatsXP), the blue colour is nice, no over-saturation, no "acidness".1 point

Windows 11 Security claims it detected: Trojan:Win32/Bearfoos.A!ml "Details: This programme is dangerous and executes commands from an attacker." Someone explain pls, do I have to worry?

Sorry for the off-topic, these are more beautiful to my taste, pleasant colours and look more like XP era drivers. 36x,xx has a more "moderm" look. Besides, 352.xx and 355,xx have the better Directx9 speed. 368 give nothing new to XP.1 point

Each version of Kernel needs only 1 (yes, one) update. This was all written by the developer in the Kernel Topic. https://msfn.org/board/topic/181612-wip-windows-vista-extended-kernel/ Example, the last Kernel only needs the SHA2 update, other versions need other updates, you can all find it there. For Vista SP2, the below step is optional (as per the original developer notes). "3. Update your Vista to 2017 EOL version (especially install sp1,sp2 and the platform update)"1 point

Probably because you added the switch after the switches' end. (on the screenshot). BTW, the order matters, at first I thought it was a placebo, but no,1 point

No, nothing else runs, as soon as I boot up, it has a load of 3%, if I boot into Safe Mode, no load observed. DWM? Tried non-Aero custom them (to exclude Aero as the culprit), but all the same, No such on the same PC with Vista. Further tests are only possible when (if) I return. Thanks.

Although I am behind a router with a NAT- firewall, I always use a software firewall to control all incoming and outgoing connections. There are programmes installed in my system I do not allow to connect to the internet. Furthermore, I always use an antimalware programme. All in all, I consider such an configuration as a basic one when it comes to the matter security. But all that is not yet an answer what is going on with the Restore Previous Session entry of New Moon's or Serpent's History menu.1 point
-
Thanks for the tip! Maybe, this helps next time in a crashed profile where the Session Manager extension wasn't installed. But unfortunately none of this answers what is going on with the Restore Previous Session entry. Apart from that, I have started using the OneTab extension more intensively again to not lose important tabs anymore.1 point

You're welcome. You can customise Mypal 68 to your needs using CSS stylesheets and UC.JS scripts. I already gave you a link to my thread: https://msfn.org/board/topic/183657-mypal-68-in-windows-xp-custom-buttons-and-extensions/ There, you can find a lot about this stuff. If I understood you correctly, you want to completely get rid of the tab bar. Right? You can do such modifications via CSS code inside the userChrome.css file or via separate CSS files which must then be integrated into the userChrome.css via the import command. The latter is the way I prefer. But first, you should prepare Mypal 68 as described in the first post of my thread under "Reqiurements for custom buttons, other script-generated objects and CSS code implementations in Mypal 68". @tinman2000 Is that what you had in mind? Mypal 68.14.3b without tab bar and new tab button:1 point

As "downstream", i.e. @roytam1, does not intend to solve this problem in Serpent as he already stated, you will inevitably have to wait until "upstream", i.e. @basilisk-dev, offers a fix. Or, you can do what I always do when a page in New Moon 28 doesn't work on Windows XP. Try the site in question under Mypal 68, and if that doesn't help, under a Chromium Win XP port like 360Chrome or Thorium! BTW, you simply cannot expect that everything you want to call up in a browser will work in Serpent. This will never be the case.1 point
-
The only example you gave is a website where the user has to register. You said: "...more and more sites...". So please list here examples of websites which appear unsecure in 360Chrome and do not need any registering! Thanks1 point

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.1 point

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?1 point

I found a German forum site where the same issue was reported under Windows XP long time ago: https://administrator.de/forum/win-xp-ereignis-id-3012-loadperf-16362.html Use an online translator! Maybe, the solution at the end of this thread works for you, too. Cheers, AstroSkipper1 point

Here is a brief report of my testing so far if someone is interested. Thorium can actually be installed on such an old computer under Windows XP. The browser starts up still quite bearable compared to other browsers on my system. However, as always with Chrome browsers on low-performance computers under Windows, the page loading behaviour is problematic. Although I have configured all conceivable flags to increase performance and selected the settings to suit my hardware, loading web pages takes considerably much longer than with New Moon, Serpent or Mypal. Of course, websites can be loaded that no longer function properly in the already mentioned browsers. Surprisingly, RAM consumption is not a problem, it is rather perfect although Thorium is running in multi-process mode. Interestingly, it seems that I have even found a solution for my installation that considerably speeds up the loading of web pages and therefore the browser start, too. It's not a new one, though. One doesn't have to reinvent the wheel, either. But first, this method must still be thoroughly tested.1 point
-
True, but you can only directly configure Windows versions released in last 4 years or so to use DOH (eg. https://www.howtogeek.com/765940/how-to-enable-dns-over-https-on-windows-11/). Older ones require to use a sort of DNS proxy or special support from the browser side. In Windows XP, you can either directly insert the desired DNS service in the native network configuration window, or you do it more convenient with a very few clicks by using a third-party tool like, for example, ChrisPC DNS Switch. I use the Pro version which has more features and is more convenient.1 point

I think you posted in the wrong thread. This is about @roytam1's browsers and not Supermium. There are no Chrome processes here, fortunately.1 point

As a technically interested person and die-hard Windows XP Professional 32-bit enthusiast , I installed Thorium on my very old and very weak computer for testing purposes only. My hardware and OS specs are: Windows XP Professional SP3 with all updates after SP3 and additionally all POSReady updates, an Intel Pentium 4 Northwood 2.80 GHz CPU (single core, 32 Bit), 1.5 GB SD-RAM and a NVIDIA GeForce 6200 graphic card. I am using the version Thorium_SSE2_122.0.6261.168_WINXP_x32 in portable mode. Nothing has been installed to avoid any compromising of my system. It was hard to adjust the browser settings and flags to load pages as it actually should be. I am using the extension uBlock Origin as I do in all my browsers to filter and block all crap. However, uBlock Origin had to be exactly adjusted to not interfere negatively the loading of websites. I will test Thorium for a while to see how it behaves on my very weak Windows XP computer. But in any case, I am also interested in experiences from other users with Thorium on old 32-bit computers.1 point
-
Personally, I would like to know about experiences of users who have installed Thorium under real (bare metal) Windows XP 32-bit on very weak hardware, especially equipped with a 32-bit (single-core) CPU like, for example, Pentium 4. Which Thorium version has been used? How does this browser behave there? How does the browser start? What does the loading behaviour of websites look like? What about performance and resource consumption in general? And above all, which settings and Chrome flags are used in those installations? It would be great to provide your hardware and OS specs when sharing any experience.1 point
-
Wow! Is this thread here about hardware? And performance comparisons between Win XP and Win 10? The answer is crystal clear: Definitely not! This thread should actually provide information about the Thorium browser. Thus, the last 7 posts are therefore completely off-topic. The reader will not learn anything worth knowing about Thorium here. No matter how you feel about this browser.1 point
-
When uBlock Origin is installed, it controls the preloading of websites. You do not have to disable uBlock Origin to control this feature again, you can simply enable the option "Disable pre-fetching" in uBO's dashboard page "Settings" as already mentioned by @Dixel.1 point

I can speak to whether Microsoft fixed this DESIGN FLAW with Vista, I had already answered. It was never there, to begin with. Looks like they implemented that "design" starting Win 7 (which I can't stand!). Strange! Weren't you the one who had recently upgraded? Allegedly.1 point
