    After I disabled CSP and re-enabled it, the site now redirects to HTTPS and loads (even while CSP is again enabled). It also loads when I directly type in https. It seems to remember some state from earlier, despite a cleared history. Normally I never type https colon slash, and just go with whichever the site is happy with.

    With security.csp.enable set to false, archive.org loads. What are the real drawbacks of disabling CSP?

    Thank you for checking AstroSkipper! For me, web.archive.org works too. I didn't know that the subdomain "web" could be used. In Chromium there are animated tiles on the main archive.org, which are probably too complex.

    Does the main page or archive . org result in a white screen in New Moon and Serpent for you? My configs are far from vanilla now to work around different issues. https://i.imgur.com/PmpyUFv.png

    TRIM for XP

    j7n replied to Dietmar's topic in Windows XP

    I meant a common SSD with a SATA cable and a standard driver, not the special Stchrom driver.

    TRIM for XP

    j7n replied to Dietmar's topic in Windows XP

    Can O&O Defrag trim a regular SATA disk under WinXP?

    I've never heard of that either. I suspect there might be a limit to the rate at which packets can be fetched, but not a strict round number for the resulting bitrate.

    If they only cared about drivers, and not to impose a restriction, they could have defaulted to /MAXMEM=3072 or some other number, and allow it to be lifted and observe system stability. Now the maxmem is hardcoded.

    I'd be curious if you could try Server 2003 and see if the problem persists. It is superior in most aspects.

    Perhaps the author forgot that the browser is overall quite wasteful and that the list is managed by a database, but vaguely remembered that adding an entry to the end of a list is simpler than deleting one and shifting the remaining entries into the freed space. So he had a bright idea to save some writes and processor.

    I think it's normal that the program hides or deletes previous visitations to the same address. I'm not looking for an incriminating log of activity within a certain period, but recent automatic bookmarks. I have added the settings, but time will tell if the history grows bigger. I can't get it past Last 7 days.

    Do I need to place these entries in user.js and not in about:config? user_pref("places.history.expiration.max_pages", 2147483647); user_pref("places.history.expiration.interval_seconds", 2147483647); I don't have a user.js file, where does it go?

    I don't know who installs image codecs at the OS level. Is there even such a thing? Microsoft had FLT codecs that only worked in Office. We probably won't see webP files being distributed outside of the web for images like album artwork in hopes of crashing Foobar2000. Any webp file I open on my computer in IrfanView I would have intentionally saved because it had real content. I've tried disabling WebP in my browsers in the past because usually it is transcoded from JPEG with an additional quality loss, but then I sometimes got no images at all.

    If I set image.webp.enabled to false, some websites like YouTube stop loading images.
  15. j7n
    What harm could the webP vulnerability cause practically? Can they include a program in the picture file that does something useful? People seem to be worried about image viewers.

    I installed the extension. Can it increase the number of addresses to keep in history? My problem was that I remembered visiting a certain page, but not all the details, and it had fallen out of the history too soon. What is "async" in the context of Firefox. I understand how two processes can be asynchronous. But how does this term apply to the dyna,mic size of history? In Opera I have 50000 entries. It is endless. Sounded like Firefox admitted that their browser isn't particularly efficient when they decreased the size.

    I skimmed the quote and thought that he asked about executable files specifically. For images and sound there are players that most people know of, like IrfanView or Media Player Classic. Maybe QuickView had uses in 1999. It doesn't support new formats that were invented since then. I don't know about viewers for Office programs. There used to be a mini Word and Excel viewer by Microsoft, but I never used those.

    Can I change the history size of visited addresses in New Moon? In number of items or how many days to keep it?
  19. j7n
    For example, "PE Tools" by NEOx/uinC.
  20. j7n
    Why is this program desirable? The formats it can open are limited, and you can get another small application that is equally as good for images/sound or gives more comprehensive report on the PE header with editing capabilities.

    I know about shady sites that require a premium account, but these are not among them. There you usually have to wait 30 to 60 seconds. For example on SourceForge, there is a circular counter that goes from 5 to 0 and then the download starts. You can also click on Problems Downloading directly. On ModDB you see a white box with a clickable link. Having an account on these sites doesn't bypass the intermediary dialog.

    Why is it common for websites to wait for 5 to 10 seconds after clicking a download link before the download actually starts? They usually not show a countdown, and give a clickable link that starts the transfer immediately. The accompanying text might say: "If your download doesn't start automatically, click the link, or select another mirror." If I do click the link, I usually get a second download started after a delay. It is not those sites where you have to pay a subscription to get high speed, but regular open web servers.

    It never occurred to me to check the program with an anti-virus because it passed a smell test. I've been having this program since 2016 (1.1.2) and used sporadically. It wants to download updated versions of itself and is probably classed as a downloader because it this. You could block its internet access. I like that it is a Delphi program and thus doesn't require big frameworks.

    Can you use MOS Authenticator for this? It is a small program that I used on WinXP to access a bank. But it may be a different format of password. http://www.maxoutput.com/authenticator/

    Can't you use DLP directly in place of it? I think the basic command-line is compatible. Recently YouTube figured out to return 403 Forbidden in the middle of a download, necessitating a manual check for completeness. Recent DLP seems to have a workaround for it.
