Only 45? Gotta get me one of those :P

Nice catch. Thanks for the release :P

Hi again. Quite good speeds on ADSL): Received: xx MiB (46.44 KiB/s) Sent: xx MiB (13.19 KiB/s). As per "the incoming speed depends on the outgoing speed", yup, probably, it goes with the spirit of the project (back then, anyway). Two more questions, if I may: how do you open a second stream (for the same browser?) to increase transit speed? Second: the folder for certificates it seems, I am not using it with these new settings and version. Is that so? needs to be there. Which are the certs that HAVE to be there?

But it doesn't run on XP, unfortunately.

In my case I had to drop the uac override switch as well. Yeah, yeah...

They work very welll. I use https://github.com/MrS0m30n3/youtube-dl-gui, and replacing the old youtube-dl with yours works like a charm.

If your set up has the juice, e10s gives a solution to that. Such is today's internet.

Wow, Mozilla's foundation dream is finally about to become a reality. They have almost caught up with G!. Job well done. :P

Hi there. With this last version of sp52 I noticed that general.useragent.override (f.e., user_pref("general.useragent.override", "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win32; x86; rv:91.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/91.0")) doesn't stick in about:config anymore?

Hi there. What switches do you use running 360chrome directly (...\Chrome\Application\360chrome.exe --xxx) while still being able to run whatsappweb? It works without switches, but I want to limit as much the amount of stuff it loads... Thanks!

I have been using version 2.41. Upon updating to 2.42.1, i get "The procedure entry point CancelIoEx could not be located in the dynamic link library KERNEL32.dll". As previous bugs with xp, I hope it will be iron out soon. My mistake: I downloaded wrong 7z file. 2.42.1 works fine. Now back to 2.41, running your i2pd.conf settings I get "error while parsing config file: unrecognised option 'cpuext.log'" when running i2pd, crashing silently before starting the browser. My mistake again. I pasted your settings directly under the standard i2pd.conf, whose last heading is [cpuext], so the program checks your settings against it and crashes. One first solution is to overwrite with your settings. Thanks!

Yup, I have used it in the past to join services available just to a few people (for example, a building consortium, a snooker pool club forum). I know even of people that use it to share blueprints for industrial design, since they have zero trust on govs or Fb-Am-Ap-GG-MS cloud services. Silly them, he, they fear those giant, east indian company like oligopolies and spyware champions may steal their work. But i2p is indeed too slow, and i have preferred not to use the outproxy, just in case. It is another language :P. I will try your settings. Since I have only used i2pd to access specific safe places, I didn't explore it much, using the standard settings in purple/i2pd. Truly thanks. Reciprocating, and hoping to learn from someone who knows more than me, these are my about:config settings for tor-i2p in sp52. Cheers. // CUSTOM - TORI2P indications user_pref("general.useragent.compatMode.firefox", true); // default, false TOR-I2P user_pref("general.useragent.compatMode.gecko", true); // default, false TOR-I2P user_pref("general.useragent.compatMode.version", "xx"); //set, add to random agent profile, 52.0 TOR-I2P user_pref("general.useragent.override", "xx"); // add, add to random agent profile - for TOR-I2P change to "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:52.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/52.0" user_pref("general.useragent.override.facebook.com", "xx) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/78.0"; // add in SSS, for TOR-I2P all to "" user_pref("general.useragent.override.fbcdn.net", "xx) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/78.0"; // add in SSS, for TOR-I2P all to "" user_pref("general.useragent.override.web.whatsapp.com","xx"; // for mypal //For useragent.override whatsapp and ggvids "xx" reset if failing), for TOR-I2P all to "" // TOR-I2P Core user_pref("network.dns.blockDotOnion", true); // default, false with TOR user_pref("javascript.enabled", true); // default, false I2P user_pref("network.proxy.socks_remote_dns", true); // set, false I2P user_pref("privacy.resistFingerprinting", false); // add, true TOR-I2P user_pref("browser.eme.ui.enabled", true); // default, false TOR-I2P DRM user_pref("canvas.poisondata", true); // set VAI-SEC, false I2P-TOR, no Mypal user_pref("layout.css.visited_links_enabled", true); // default, false TOR-I2P user_pref("dom.workers.enabled", true); // default for pinnotes (false TOR-I2P) - *-* user_pref("media.eme.apiVisible", true); // default, false TOR-I2P DRM, add Mypal user_pref("security.ssl3.dhe_rsa_camellia_128_sha", true); // default, false TOR-I2P user_pref("security.ssl3.dhe_rsa_camellia_256_sha", true); // default, false TOR-I2P user_pref("security.ssl3.ecdhe_ecdsa_aes_128_sha", true); // default, false TOR-I2P user_pref("security.ssl3.ecdhe_ecdsa_aes_256_sha", true); // set, false TOR-I2P user_pref("security.ssl3.ecdhe_rsa_aes_128_sha", true); // default, false TOR-I2P user_pref("security.ssl3.ecdhe_rsa_aes_256_sha, true); // default, false TOR-I2P user_pref("security.ssl3.rsa_aes_128_sha, true); // set, false TOR-I2P user_pref("security.ssl3.rsa_aes_256_gcm_sha384, true); //set, false TOR-I2P user_pref("security.ssl3.rsa_aes_256_sha, true); // set, false TOR-I2P user_pref("security.ssl3.rsa_aes_256_sha256, true); // set, false TOR-I2P user_pref("security.ssl3.rsa_camellia_128_sha", true); // set, false TOR-I2P user_pref("security.ssl3.rsa_camellia_256_sha", true); // set, false TOR-I2P

No problem like that in my place, even though a common user -perhaps even an ISP- can't really know if certain sites are blocked. I just don't care for anyone but the site I am browsing to know I am there, and I don't even want some sites to know -therefore the use of tor and such. However, ISPs -and many sites (see pm, for example)- can also detect the use of tor, and either block it or (potentially) log it and report it to either governmental or non-gov agencies, or to particular individuals in the national or international arena. And since not so many ppl use tor, once an ISP wants to do it (or is forced by agencies or individuals with the muscle to do so), they can see you are running tor, like a bright needle in the dark. Then the rest is just waiting until they find out where you are. Running behind something like shadowsocks may make that harder than it is today. In my case, I do not care about the instances when the previous paragraph becomes a reality. But it will sure take them a while, and more than a sorry a**, to know I'm just human. I don't know (or really care) if my mother would approve of my browsing behavior. I do care that petty hackers, clumsy censors, or my ISP know what I'm about. Just coz, sometimes research, and fun. Nuff said.

Just tweaking away at the moment, btw, so my apologies if what I am saying has to be changed soon :P

I would start by looking at http://proxallium.dtw.tools/. As I said, it is quite easy to replace the tor version there with this tor build. Basically copy artenox's tor files into a specific folder within the one in which proxallium is, then modify the config.ini and config-torrc to point proallium to this tor folder, as well as any other change you want. However, I have noticed that the tor console within proxallum runs (I think by default) with switches --allow-missing-torrc --defaults-torrc "" -f "config.torrc". This means, I think, that if it doesn't find a torrc file in the root folder, proxallium creates one with default values in "user/application data", with default values. But having a taylored torrc already in the root folder (as the standard proxalliun folder has) makes it use that file. So far (and again, with no "forensic" analysis yet), the only issue I have with this is that I can't switch identity: Switching to clean circuits... Failed to create clean circuits! (Error Code: 5 and Extended Code: 10038)

That would be great. The problem with tor and such is that they are so notorious. But since I am on XP, and am comfortable with standard security in bare-bones Linux, I have not tried shadowsocks. I will now, hopefully soon with your build :P If I understand correctly, artenox is trying to build it with openssl 1.0.2zd. The openvpn (fork?) you mention (thanks!) is built with 1.1.1m (https://openvpn-for-windows-xp.sourceforge.io/) . It would be great to see a combination of both.

It works well. I haven't tested properly (forensics of where the browser is connecting to), yet. But it looks promising. I can run it on a custom sp52, and besides browsing without sending data to my isp, I can visit onion services using the new tor protocol -which allows me to get rid of the russian torbrowser repack thingy, which has no source available, so who knows. Thanks!. Your build can be used to replace the tor items in ProxAllium (and for those who want to do so, also the russian repack). With ProxAllium and your build I got rid (bah, I stopped using) AdvOR (closed source, seriously outdated, but still working -I wish I could figure out where/how it launches tor to replace it with your build. Optimally, I would like to see a minimal gui to modify the torrc. Nothing fancy. Also, or alternatively, a hide to tray tweak for the command box (trayit won't do the trick) would be neat too. Thanks again!

It would make sense. W7 was the last non-spyware (if well set up) version of MS. W8 already was banned for governmental use in GE among others, I reckon. Many will resist (or be prevented from) "upgrading" from W7 and move to linux if support is not extended.

I also have that registry item.

Oh my goodness! Too sweet your builds are, roytam1!

Thanks, @feodor2. I haven't had any bsod, but I disable things (webgl, wasm and such) by default, using mostly the standard user.js for ff68 from https://github.com/ghacksuserjs/ghacks-user.js. This may help singling out the source of trouble. Be well. Thanks for this.

Hi there. Among the things I tweak in about:config are the following, and am wondering if anybody has played/studied these settings (which are set to true by default): user_pref("javascript.options.shared_memory", false); // set *-* user_pref("javascript.options.baselinejit", false); // set *-* user_pref("javascript.options.wasm", false); // set The case to disable wasm thing seems clear: https://github.com/stevespringett/disable-webassembly The other two, I believe, are related to meltdown and specter. See (for windows 7): https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/kb4073119-windows-client-guidance-for-it-pros-to-protect-against-silicon-based-microarchitectural-and-speculative-execution-side-channel-vulnerabilities-35820a8a-ae13-1299-88cc-357f104f5b11 Any thoughts on whether to keep them disabled?

I can't let it hanging just like that, Sir. Youth is a divine treasure and I still fear not what may eventuate when my will is at stake. And, oh, It gets better with age. I'm still hot stuff... Just sayin https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EwSzwWV8ink
