My Browser Builds (Part 4)
AstroSkipper replied to roytam1's topic in Browsers working on Older NT-Family OSes
... Again, cautionary words from "upstream" : https://forum.palemoon.org/viewtopic.php?p=242821#p242821 ... So, as I've stated multiple times in the past myself, "use e10s at your own risk" (I'm not, if you care to ask ) ... Browsers like Serpent and Mypal 68 in single-process mode, that's what I only use under Windows XP. Stable and ideal for old computers. -
Hello @WSC4! I am glad that Malwarebytes 1.75.0.1300 is working for you under Windows XP 64-bit with the help of my instructions. I personally couldn't test it under this OS because I only use Windows XP Professional SP3. Therefore, thanks for your report!

ProxHTTPSProxy and HTTPSProxy in Windows XP for future use
AstroSkipper replied to AstroSkipper's topic in Windows XP
Although a little off-topic, the joke of the whole story is that OnlyFans runs much faster and better in New Moon 28 than in 360Chrome on my old Windows XP computer. And I mean that natively without ProxHTTPSProxy.- 922 replies

Browserleaks is a great website. I always use https://browserleaks.com/tls to check the used TLS protocol and its cipher suite. Very good service!

ProxHTTPSProxy and HTTPSProxy in Windows XP for future use

Greetings back! I meant the homepage onlyfans.com and their contained links. They work with ProxyMII in New Moon 28, but not in 360Chrome.- 922 replies

ProxHTTPSProxy and HTTPSProxy in Windows XP for future use
AstroSkipper replied to AstroSkipper's topic in Windows XP
Thanks for your reply! However, the intention of my post was to clarify that the onlyfans.com website can be accessed without problems via ProxHTTPSProxy. The fact that this does not work with 360Chrome is a problem with this browser itself. Furthermore, I personally didn't observe a noticeable slowdown when accessing onlyfans.com via the new version of ProxHTTPSProxy (ProxyMII dated from 13.08.2023) in New Moon 28. And my Windows XP computer is very old and slow. BTW, I also use ProxHTTPSProxy under Windows XP only when necessary.- 922 replies

ProxHTTPSProxy and HTTPSProxy in Windows XP for future use
AstroSkipper replied to AstroSkipper's topic in Windows XP
Hello @Dave-H! I tested again the website onlyfans.com. I found out that the problem to access this site via proxy doesn't seem related to ProxHTTPSProxy but rather to the 360Chrome browser. When accessing this site in the latest releases (I tested the last two ones) of New Moon 28, there is no problem. New Moon 28 works much better with this site than 360Chrome. onlyfans.com loads very quickly natively, and no problems via ProxHTTPSProxy in this browser, either. You no longer have to enter this website under [SSL Pass-Thru]. BTW, it doesn't matter whether you use the latest or the previous version of ProxHTTPSProxy. If you ever have time, you can try this out. Since I don't use this website and don't have an account, maybe you can also try a login via New Moon 28. In my system, the website runs great in New Moon 28, in 360 Chrome unfortunately terribly with long loading times on my old computer. And via ProxHTTPSProxy, it doesn't really run in 360Chrome, strangely enough. Something in the connection check is blocked then. Cheers, AstroSkipper- 922 replies

ProxHTTPSProxy and HTTPSProxy in Windows XP for future use
AstroSkipper replied to AstroSkipper's topic in Windows XP
Hello @Dave-H! I am currently testing this out. It is clear that a more up-to-date version of OpenSSL and Cryptography will almost certainly be accompanied by bug fixes or optimisations. In my tests so far, the proxy works great and fast. I'm already in the process of integrating it into my package. At the moment, however, there is no compelling need to change. ProxyMII as such is of course not as comfortable to use. When you call it up, it is not automatically entered in the system proxy settings of IE. All has to be done manually. The handling of the ProxyMII standalone version is described in detail in the section 8 and following of my main article.- 922 replies

ProxHTTPSProxy and HTTPSProxy in Windows XP for future use
AstroSkipper replied to AstroSkipper's topic in Windows XP
Hello to all interested users of ProxHTTPSProxy and a special hello to @cmalex! I have tested the brand new release of ProxyMII dated from 13.08.2023 for some days. And I am thrilled. It runs like clockwork. I have tested ProxyMII 230813 together with the browsers Internet Explorer 8, New Moon 28, Iceape and 360ChromePortable 13.5.1030 rebuild 7. So far no problems, on the contrary, the proxy is fast and runs great with my old SSE2 processor. FYI, @cmalex updated ProxyMII in terms of OpenSSL from 3.0.5 to 3.1.2 and Cryptography from 3.4.8 to 40.0.2 some days ago. However, this version now requires at least a processor with SSE2 instruction set and higher. More to come soon. In any case, a big thank you to @cmalex!- 922 replies

My Browser Builds (Part 4)
AstroSkipper replied to roytam1's topic in Browsers working on Older NT-Family OSes
I do not provide personal data in forums generally. So, you are allowed to ask whatever you want to in terms of the real person behind AstroSkipper. The answer is unfortunately no comment. Anonymity and data protection are valuable commodities, which should be cultivated, especially in this day and age. And the probability that this will change at some point approaches zero according to Cauchy's ε-δ-convergence criterion. Enough proof? And I look something like this: -

User Agent Status - An extension to control the useragent for the currently loaded website In order for our legacy UXP browsers, which are regularly updated by @roytam1 and adapted to the modern web, to function properly with certain pages, the user agent used must be changed more and more frequently. This can be done via about:config or much more conveniently with the help of an extension. My favourite is User Agent Status. Here is a small screenshot: This extension lets you set a new site-specific user agent override (SSUAO) or reset it to its default string. Everything is displayed in the status bar and done by clicking on the corresponding button. There are five different actions when middle-clicking on the status bar icon: Reset the UA (default), Set the UA, Show the current website's SSUAO preference in about:config, Cycle between UA compatibility modes, and Nothing. You can set what action the middle-click does either via the context menu or the preferences manager in about:addons! In the status bar, you can see additionally three icon colours. Blue means no SSUAO, purple means a vendor-provided/default SSUAO, and red means a user-set SSUAO was assigned for the currently loaded web page. Here is the link to User Agent Status where you can find more detailed information: https://addons.palemoon.org/addon/ua-status/ Cheers, AstroSkipper

Actually, it doesn't matter. But if you want to know later where it came from, it makes sense to keep the original name. A Nightmare on Elm Street! -

And for all who would like to import or export stylesheets I recommend to install additionally the extension Stylish-Custom https://addons.palemoon.org/addon/stylish-custom/. It adds further functionality to Stylem or Stylish such as an import/export function. -
My Browser Builds (Part 4)
AstroSkipper replied to roytam1's topic in Browsers working on Older NT-Family OSes
As I already mentioned, you have to do this via copy and save the CSS code from the stylesheet site such as https://userstyles.org/styles/180927/disable-css-animations-and-transitions-safely.css. Scroll down to the bottom of this site, click onto "Show code", copy it, create in Stylem an empty stylesheet and insert the copied code. Then save it by giving the original name provided on this site. That's all. BTW, you can create such a stylesheet globally or for a specific website. -

Thanks for the link! Never heard of this driver before. I use the GeForce Release 307.83 WHQL which was actually the last official driver for my NVIDIA GeForce 6200. But we don't want to go into that here, as the whole topic is off-topic. This thread is still about @roytam1's browser releases.
