Those builds are originally for my private use and they are released because of my goodwill that I think they may help others. This bug doesn't affect me and so I don't have big intention on hunting and fixing it. If you want this to be fixed you at least need to find when the problem started to occur. and last but not least, stop gaslighting.

Thanks @Tangy. I would be interested to know your results. Just an update, I spoke again today to Panda's technical support people at AnyTech365. Again, really friendly and helpful people, who knew exactly what I was talking about. They are thinking, as many here do, that Panda have actually withdrawn support for XP. They agree that doing this by just breaking the legacy version of Panda Dome, is not a good way of doing this, especially for paying customers, and they are trying to find out whether this really is the case or whether this has been done accidentally and will be fixed, if indeed it's possible to do that. There has certainly been no change made to the system requirements on Panda's website, and the article trumpeting its XP compatibility claims to have been updated on July 1st. They have given me a number to ring for Watchguard, Panda's parent company, so I will try giving them a ring tomorrow to see what they say about this.

Here’s an alternative take on the situation: The drama behind the scenes: Why Google lost its soul There are three fundamental reasons why Google Search has become so abysmally bad and all our observations are absolutely spot on: Surrendering to SEO spam (the ‘Dead Internet’ theory): The web is inundated with automated, AI-generated pages written solely for the Google algorithm, with the sole aim of selling advertising space. Google has, in effect, lost the arms race against this flood of spam. They’re trying to patch it up with filters (like the latest Core Update), which then leads to total failures where forums like MSFN end up wrongly in the digital gulag. The displacement of the ‘old web’ (Digital Oblivion): The permanent deletion and de-indexing of old content, which has been going on for a long time, is a tragedy. Google is optimising its server costs. Old forum threads, static HTML pages from the 2000s and small private tech blogs are mercilessly kicked out of the index because they don’t generate enough traffic or aren’t ‘mobile-optimised’. This systematically wipes out the collective knowledge of the internet. The compulsion towards ‘synthetic answers’: Google no longer wants to send people to external sites like MSFN. They want them to stay on their site so that you see their adverts. That is why they are trying to summarise everything in AI overviews (SGE). This leads to the actual search index withering away, because it now serves only as fodder for the AI engine, rather than as a guide to real websites.

https://www.techspot.com/news/111434-tofu-brine-could-power-safer-batteries-last-decades.html Tofu Brine could power safer batteries that last decades, researchers say A new neutral-electrolyte battery survives more than 120,000 cycles without fire risk By Skye Jacobs Today (Feb 23, 2026) Bottom line: A mixture most people associate with tofu production could soon help make safer, longer-lasting batteries. Researchers from the City University of Hong Kong and Southern University of Science and Technology have built a water-based power cell that runs on tofu brine – the mineral-rich solution left behind after pressing soy curds. The design replaces the complex, flammable chemistry of lithium-ion batteries with an electrolyte that's as safe as saltwater. In lab tests, the prototype endured more than 120,000 charge cycles, an endurance record that far exceeds today's commercial standards.

... Well, why? 1. 32-bit apps run perfectly fine on a 64-bit OS 2. Do you expect a huge performance boost if you ran a 64-bit variant of yt-dlp ? Well, this app isn't, say, a browser with a voracious RAM appetite; I've been using it on a 32-bit OS myself for close to a decade, never ran into memory issues... 3. The one practical advantage of running it under 64-bit, the ability to install the curl_cffi optional dependency (necessary to circumvent CloudFlare's antibot/AI filters on many popular services) is nullified under WinXP, because the lib it uses internally (curl-impersonate) requires at least Win7(8?) x64 ... In any case, this is probably a "no-can-do", because @nicolaasjan relies on a third-party CPython-3.11-win32 implementation to compile his 32-bit WinXP-compatible builds; specifically, this was a py3.11.4 "assembly" kindly offered by our Ukrainian member cmalex , which uses several DLL wrappers from OCA/Wine/ReactOS and it was provided solely as a 32-bit variant (which should cover probably 95% of XP users ) ... Regards.

Additionally, and predictably, if you set Supermium to use New Moon's default User Agent, then Supermium is sent the tracking link version of the search results. Again, all server-side. The browsers are rendering what they are sent by the server.

Merry Christmas and please enjoy a freshly specially experimental build!

There are now (at the end of 2025) very, very few anti-malware programmes for Windows XP with real-time protection free of charge. Panda Free Antivirus is an absolute exception. It is still maintained and runs under Windows XP. Here are two screenshots of the current version 22.03.05, which has just been released: An anti-malware programme with a most recent scan engine and up-to-date virus definitions even under very old OSes like Windows XP or Windows Vista. What more could be wanted? Here is the link to my updated article: Cheers, AstroSkipper

This may be of some use for Win XP users in today's world with Win XP being phased out more everyday ... this service is also listed to work with Windows 98 SE / ME also. I used it about 6 years ago myself and now am being forced to use it again in Oct 2025 to be able to get my Win XP computer on the internet with a VPN. The paid service I was using has finally cut off all Win XP connections. They warned two years ago it was coming and the service still works for my Windows 7 computer but I still mostly use my Win XP computer for everyday connecting. As I said above ... I used this free VPN about 6 years ago and I have hooked the XP computer up to the service again. I will say that they have really improved things and the service is great in 2025.

Back again. I'm cautiously confident that I've found another workaround for the problem with Panda Dome, and this one appears to have stuck. I was puzzled as to why the crashes, although sometimes apparently at random, could be triggered at will, at least on my machine. One thing which nearly always triggered an immediate crash, even if the system had been running for some time without any, was to click the Windows 'Start' button. This led me to think that there was some issue with Windows Explorer which was triggering the crash. One other clue was that one of the first things I noticed was that if I clicked Start, even if it didn't crash, the user-added shortcuts were a blank box, only populating after several seconds. I tried excluding Explorer from scanning, but that made no difference. I then tried excluding my whole system drive from scanning. Hey presto, no more crashes! So, by a process of elimination, I eventually narrowed it down to the folders which were triggering the crashes when they were scanned. I now have three folders excluded from scanning – Documents and Settings\[Username]\Start Menu Documents and Settings\[Username]\SendTo Documents and Settings\[Username]\Recent So far this has stopped the regular crashes, and Panda has updated without them coming back again. This is pure speculation, but what I suspect happened here is that Panda rolled out an update which broke compatibility with the Windows XP Explorer, which is quite different from that on later versions of Windows, of course. When Panda tried to scan those folders, like the 'Recent' folder being scanned when 'Documents' is clicked on the Start Menu, this triggered a crash. This is of course only a workaround, not a fix, and the problem could come back at any time, but at least on my system it seems to have fixed it for now. There is a security issue with excluding system folders from scanning, of course, but as the folders concerned only contain shortcuts, I would think it's pretty minimal. If anyone else still has a malfunctioning installation of Panda Dome installed, I would be interested to know if this works for them.

Regarding panda forum reporting, to be able to uninstall panda you have to be able to stop the antivirus running. right clicking task bar icon does not always respond. after a few reboots my task bar icon informed me that my computer was not protected, a tiny red circle with the x. then it was easy to uninstall from add/remove. I also used their generic uninstaller which removed everything from my pc. I did a clean install but unfortunately the song remained the same. 5 minutes later it crashed. I have not got the foggiest how to go about it.

@nicolaasjan This is an attempt to explain what happens when the contaminated MSFN server meets other search engine bots than Googlebot or bingbot. For everyone else, it refers to @nicolaasjan's test and observation: Why alternative bots (like MojeekBot) trigger the "Welcome Loading ..." freeze 1. The mechanics of the attack: The server-side user agent sniffer The malware installed on the server uses a conditional script (usually written in PHP within core files like index.php or .htaccess rewrites). This script scans the incoming request for specific keywords in the User-Agent string to determine whether to serve the clean forum to a human user or the spam payload to a search engine. 2. The Googlebot trigger vs. the MojeekBot catch-all fault With Googlebot: The malware has a fully defined template. When it detects Googlebot, it successfully injects the hidden HTML container containing the Thai spam, links, and keywords, allowing the page to render fully for the crawler. With MojeekBot (and potentially other secondary search bots): The malware's sniffing routine recognizes the word Bot or Bot/ (via a regular expression or wildcard check like *bot*), flagging it as a search engine. However, the malware's backend does not have a valid spam-template or correct database-routing configured for this specific bot identifier. 3. The cause of the freeze: Broken Document Object Model (DOM) & JavaScript execution The string "Welcome Loading ..." is part of the forum’s native lazy-loading or initialization layout (often used during the initial handshaking phase between the server and the browser's JavaScript engine). When MojeekBot hits the server, the malware triggers, intercepts the request, but then crashes or terminates prematurely (e.g., throwing a silent PHP Fatal Error or an unhandled exception because the variable for the payload is empty or undefined). The backend script crashes mid-execution: It completely fails to fetch and load the actual forum database content (the threads, posts, and UI). It leaves the HTML document incomplete and broken, trapping the page forever in the initial "Welcome Loading..." state. This observation proves that the infection is not a static HTML injection into old threads, but an active, dynamic routing script on the server. It intercepts all automated crawlers based on a broad User-Agent filter, but breaks completely when encountering bots it wasn't explicitly optimized for (like Mojeek). To fix this, the administrator @xper or supervisor @Tripredacus needs to look for malicious conditional statements filtering user agent keywords inside the server configuration or core PHP initialization scripts.

No : https://forum.palemoon.org/viewtopic.php?t=23281 PS: I realise people on old/weak H/W (like myself ), in an attempt to squeeze more out of the browser, often turn to "about:config" for custom modifications of one or more "advanced" prefs (in the expectation they can potentially make their "old" box behave like a "recent" one ) ; besides the fact these "about:config" prefs are primarily directed at devs (and should not be tinkered by plain users), they are often poorly documented now (because MDN have a nasty habit of removing old documentation), so one can't be 100% sure what the actual/future ramifications of such a change will be; often times, it's just a placebo effect, at best ("I" manually modified the default value, so it "must" have improved performance); in the past, I used to do that myself a lot, but over the years I ended up with the conviction that leaving prefs at their default settings (configured by Mozilla devs) is probably the best policy ; but this is just me...

For anyone who isn't familiar with LUA scripts. My mod of the LUA script yt-dlp4vlc does the following: YouTube links entered in VLC are now processed by the YouTube downloader yt-dlp and are then transferred to VLC and played back. Credits to FalloNero. The console window is hidden either by a PowerShell command or by the tool hidecon if the latter exists in VLC's programme folder. Video links without appended quality parameter can now be played again with the quality preset by the user in the VLC settings. The default video codec has been preset by me to h264 so that even older hardware is supported. This can of course be changed in the script by the users according to their needs.

aaah, no clue whats wrong here: 0:26.17 c:/devel/myUXP/intl/icu/source/i18n/messageformat2_function_registry.cpp(862): error C2280: 'icu_78::message2::StandardFunctions::Plural::Plural(const icu_78::message2::StandardFunctions::Plural &)': attempting to reference a deleted function 0:26.17 c:\devel\myuxp\intl\icu\source\i18n\messageformat2_function_registry_internal.h(248): note: compiler has generated 'icu_78::message2::StandardFunctions::Plural::Plural' here 0:26.17 c:\devel\myuxp\intl\icu\source\i18n\messageformat2_function_registry_internal.h(248): note: 'icu_78::message2::StandardFunctions::Plural::Plural(const icu_78::message2::StandardFunctions::Plural &)': function was implicitly deleted because a data member invokes a deleted or inaccessible function 'icu_78::LocalPointer<icu_78::message2::StandardFunctions::Number>::LocalPointer(const icu_78::LocalPointer<icu_78::message2::StandardFunctions::Number> &)' 0:26.17 c:\devel\myUXP\intl\icu\source\common\unicode/localpointer.h(343): note: 'icu_78::LocalPointer<icu_78::message2::StandardFunctions::Number>::LocalPointer(const icu_78::LocalPointer<icu_78::message2::StandardFunctions::Number> &)': function was implicitly deleted because 'icu_78::LocalPointer<icu_78::message2::StandardFunctions::Number>' has a user-defined move constructor and v141_xp seems to be not good enough to build ICU 78. EDIT: got it fixed, -std:c++17 is needed by new ICU, so vc2015 branch will no longer be buildable as ICU can't be skipped. EDIT2: the above error is solved by adding a copy-ctr line in localpointer.h, all changes are in https://github.com/roytam1/UXP/commit/9f6727874f81bf98ef3f54f046d14c6c5cfdc20f , and hope I did it right. I think I can make a special release tomorrow! And now I have a newer-than-mypal ICU and feodor2 may have a look?

Generally, Panda Antivirus Free is working under Windows XP, even in the most recent version. However, there are two issues. The first issue which I noticed is the unability to connect to a Panda Dome account. Every time you open the programme interface, you are annoyed by a pop-up window asking you to log in to a Panda Dome account. However, this does not work under Windows XP and ends with an error message. There is no official solution for this error. But I have a solution. It appears to be a TLS problem. A secure connection is required, which Windows XP cannot establish natively. The solution is ProxHTTPSProxy, HTTPSProxy or ProxyMII which you can get in my thread Simply set the proxy in the Panda Antivirus settings and set up your Panda Dome account. Once this is done, Panda will no longer bother you, and the proxy settings can be deleted again. The second issue consists of a delay of several minutes during system start-up. Panda Antivirus needs round about 5 minutes to be completely loaded on my machine. I tried different versions and possible solutions, but nothing helped. Therefore, this issue has been reported by me to Panda's support. We will see what happens. Greetings from Germany, AstroSkipper

I was able to login in with OAth2 using MailNews with an outlook account. I had to go in the config editor and set *general.useragent.compatMode.firefox* to true. Then the Microsoft login page displayed properly and worked. Hope it helps some folks, I am using windows server 2003

https://github.com/e3kskoy7wqk/Chromium-for-windows-7-REWORK He made few reworked versions. It also can support XP and Vista without extended kernels

Notice: although there are some commits in upstream which worth importing, I'm mentally affected by fire news happened in Hong Kong lately so new build will be delayed (i.e. no build this week)

This thread is about @roytam1's browsers targeting legacy OSes. And that means even browsers under Windows 7 and Windows 8 as they are also legacy in the meanwhile. But I think @Zorba the Geek is looking for a solution under Windows XP.

I COMPLETELY agree @VistaLover. By the way, you really did a complete job in your above assessment. I'm also grateful to what @K4sum1 gave us. But I also need to look after my needs. While I hate that we have a Google-fied web, I've stopped worrying about the implications of all of the privacy issues we face. It's not that I disagree with the level of concern, but it's that we REALLY can do nothing about it. I need to perform online banking, watch and help produce videos on YouTube, use WebRTC to voice traffic reports, and take part in Zoom meetings, Google Meet and Teams Meetings, and apply for work; all which basically NECESSITATES providing a good chunk of personal information to proceed. I don't agree with the corporate tactics, but I must continue to function. It was indeed K4Sum1's project, as Pale Moon was Moonchild's. What I feel these visionary types (who admittedly deserve a lot of credit for their work), fail to realize is that those that make up their user base are CONSUMERS or CUSTOMERS. Now Moonchild and his "moonie minions" VEHEMENTLY disagree with that. But customers are not just defined as those providing monetary exchange to a company or corporation for a product. They can be those who provide voluntary stake to a company, or mission. So in this way, those who co-develop alongside Moonchild, those who provide add-ons, those who beta test, and YES even those who simply (and regularly) USE Pale Moon, are indeed customers and stakeholders. When someone creates a project, and it attracts users to the resulting product, such as in K4Sum1's r3dFox, expectations begin to be developed. No matter if these expectations are right or wrong for the userbase to behold, they are real, and the developer needs to contend with them. Those are simply the facts. K4Sum1 provided a way for me to use Windows 8 on an extended basis, and you become reliant on that. When K4Sum1 understandably says, "I'm just not feeling it", it doesn't incite a favourable response among the userbase. Fair? Perhaps not, but it's a very real sentiment. @K4sum1, I genuinely hope you are OK.
