My Browser Builds (Part 4)
AstroSkipper replied to roytam1's topic in Browsers working on Older NT-Family OSes
You're welcome! Glad I could help a bit! -
You're right if you refer to these Googlized websites! However, this is not @roytam1's problem, but due to the browser architecture he supports. Even he cannot work magic and Moonchild, either. I give all these Google-infested sites to 360Chrome v13.5 build 1030 or my Android tablet to eat. But, my mainly used browsers are New Moon and Serpent, and maybe, Mypal 68 in the future. That's how it will stay for now, and hopefully for a long time.
-
As you probably already suspected, I can't really agree with you there, either. The 360Chrome versions here are no longer being actiively developed, the modifications are rather cosmetic, except for the innovative rebasing. All versions of @roytam1 are actively modified in their code, week by week, for which I am extremely grateful to him. Therefore, this comparison also stands on shaky ground. But however, I appreciate all your efforts here.

That is rather splitting hairs. You start the tool with the default ini file and it generates the address 0x62a00000 for chrome.dll which is logged by libase in its ini file. Seen in this way, the tool has "chosen" it itself. No interaction by the user. But, your further investigation is not uninteresting. I did not examine the calculation of libase's generated base address more deeply. I would do that only if something went wrong.
-
Yeah! I totally forgot. It is generated automatically by libase. My fault! If another address is wanted, one has to use Rebase from Microsoft. @Anbima! So, any deleting in the file libase.ini is not needed and does not do anything, either. I used simply libase without any additional settings which presumably can't be made by libase. It is just an automatic tool and does everything by itself.
-
Use libase! Rebasing is such a simple process and fully documented in the 360 Chrome threads several times. Furthermore, @Humming Owl provides an archive with a batch file to do that automatically. So, it can be performed by any user. Under these circumstances, I am not a fan of such spoon feeding, which would actually mean that the user is too lazy to read and do it himself.

Right! I use the full paid version. IDA is a good download manager and has been maintaining compatibility with Windows XP for years. -

I get a mega crisis every time any CF check is to be done in my browsers. -

I think the English version is called Internet Download Accelerator. I use it in Windows XP for years. Look here: https://westbyte.com/ida/index.phtml?page=download -
You're welcome! BTW, I already knew this thread. Unfortunately, there is no official forum, only this rather unofficial thread. As I wrote in my article, I do not regret the change. But you have to set many exclusions, because WiseVector StopX examines some programs very intensively, which leads to disturbances. Today, for example, I wanted to play some music videos in VLC, but unfortunately only with stuttering sound. I tried everything. I upgraded, downgraded and finally even completely reinstalled VLC. Nothing helped! Until I realised that WiseVector StopX was the culprit. I quickly made two exclusions and everything was ok again. Cheers, AstroSkipper

I only reported what I found on avast!'s official website. Nothing else! In the past, I used avast! Premier 18.8 in Windows XP, but I switched to WiseVector StopX due to many reasons. I wrote a short article about that which you can read here: I never used any free versions of avast! in Windows XP. Therefore, I did not test the information avast! provided on their website. It was just something I read while surfing.

Hello @roytam1! The links above don't work, they all lead to 404. Thanks for fixing! -

this come too late to my mind and the actual pref change has to be available in next build only. for those having urgent use may need to flip this switch by yourself. No problem! BTW, this cipher suite should be set to true in all your browser editions. I already did that in New Moon 28, Serpent 52, Serpent 55, Iceape, bnavigator and K-Meleon. I don't know about your other editions, I don't use them, but enabling this cipher suite is a good idea, of course if possible.
