  1. Hey! I have to use webex every now and then, but I have not been able to do it in XP. Could you share details on how (which extension, what client if any, etc.) you do it? Thanks!
  2. In V12 here, and in @articfoxie's V13:2206, I am able to run the following extensions: FUNCTIONS All in one web searcher Allow Right-Click Behind The Overlay Close Tab Context Menu Search Enhancer for YouTube™ Open With Sexy Undo Close Tab Social Fixer for Facebook PRIVACY AND SECUTIRY Clean All - History & Cache Cleaner ClearURLs [Cookie Autodelete OR Cookiebro (below 12)] Decentraleyes Google search link fix HTTPS Everywhere Neat URL Scriptsafe Ublock Origin Umatrix Since scripsafe and All in one web searcher require loading (or something in) \User Data\Default\Local Storage\leveldb, they lose settings on crashes or if you clean that folder, but there is a workaround I could share, if needed. Also, I run the V9 and V12 builds (have not tried V11) using ArticFoxies modded 360loader exe and ini, with command flags and custom folder/file deletes that I can share, if needed. Cheers!
  3. Ucyborg is right. I haven't used the specific plugins, but winmerge can supposedly load and replace (at least file by file) word and pdf files, at least file by file. A tough cookie... As per openoffice/libreoffice, this may help (but not much): https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=30&t=5067
  4. For that function, I use https://www.inforapid.de/html/searchreplace.htm
  5. Hi there. After a failed first attempt, V12 works well in my setup. It loads sites well, including use of multiple youtube tabs. No funny-worrisome connections. Sometimes launching chrome://flags/ crashes the browser. I will keep on testing.
  6. First, thanks for getting 360 to be a usable browser. Then, with all due respect, you got this one wrong. You asked for beta testers (for those -not you- who wonder what such thing is, google it), and I (among others) did. In my case, I (as a few others did) reported that that all FB-AP-GG-MS sites were working fine, except for youtube. No frowning upon, just the facts of testing, ma'am. I have kept your modded 2206 for general use (for such unnecessarily script-heavy sites) , except for party mood, when I will have to (still) use a linux laptop. Otherwise, it is a welcome addition to XP: it is capable to run sites where firefox derivatives can't run without script-stuttering, and it performs well (give or take a few glitches we all are used to), reliably and stably -unless you need more than one instance of youtube in your browser- so thanks again. Sincerely. I look forward to your future contributions to this community, bro. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t3J_2R9rAp8 PS: if I were to share this song publicly, other than in youtube, it would be blocked (and I could be sued) for copyright infringement, BTW.
  7. I only leave these services (of the ones shipping in XP) running in automatic and manual. I think workstation can be disabled if you do not plan to use a lan (but I haven't tested it). I wonder if com+ is really needed -has anyone disabled it or turn it to manual?.
  8. Ha ha. The trick is to set up a playlist in one tab, then switching to another to change the mood, every now an then. :P
  9. Miranda-ng works great. https://www.miranda-ng.org/en/
  10. I prefer not to use the host, or the firewall, when I can avoid it. Following your suggestions, I added to the following lines to user.js user_pref("captivedetect.canonicalURL","''"); user_pref("network.captive-portal-service.enabled", false); Thanks!
  11. On vanilla start, 1106 allows now multiple youtube tabs, no crashes. I would not abandon it :P
  12. On latest basilisk52, vanilla and otherwise, the browser gets a connection from 104.22.12.159 (detectportal.palemoon.org). I do not want to enter this address into the firewall because it would block acces to palemoon's website and extensions. Can you check it out? Thanks!
  13. Further report on 2206: 1) On vanilla first run, gets a connection from source www.gstatic.com, 172.217.173.3 -reported by NetworkTrafficView with ipnetinfo (nirsoft). It does not appear on second run and beyond. 2) In my nlited setup (vanilla and production) it crashes when opening two youtube tabs. 3) No other suspicious connection. But some extension(s) -can't figure out which one(s)- connects (sometimes) to 172.217.172.72 and 172.217.172.174 (google analytics). I have restricted those sites with umatrix and scriptsafe, but sometimes they managed to escape the cage (as per NetworkTrafficView). I have blocked them in the firewall. I will now report on 1106. Cheers!
  14. I look forward to it. Your current 2206 is stable enough to use daily. Main issue is that it won't mostly allow two youtube tabs. A drawback if you are running a party or editing s*** for your own use. Laf. Soon you will be able to say the same running windows10. Envy consumes me.
  15. This last 2206 version is quite an improvement. Youtube crashes it now and then, but not as noticeably as previous versions, and mostly when opening more than one instance. Thanks!
  16. I could lend a hand. The big east/west/north/south companies of this day gotta learn a lesson or two, said the resurrected louse.
  17. Yup I did not notice the sp2, apologies. In sp3 9.5 is quite solid. I am keeping it until ArticFoxie and Humming bird tackle the current beta. Sincerely, thanx to you two guys.
  18. Quite right on deleting databases, and on the very good use you are making of the loader (for what I can understand, from the perspective of a relatively informed user). Still, crashes continue to occur, now and then, sometimes in coincidence with crashes on other DX dependent applications. The youtube database mediating a crash is the symptom. The protocol for other sites works fine. But not youtube's. I reckon it is related to cookies: if you open a few (sometimes just 2) instances, it makes chrome crash, and there you are once again, deleting the databases. It is a beta, and a superseded one, at that. I will keep playing with it. Cheers! PS: I've decided that if I am willing to share all my social media info with the echelon, I may let the russians and the chinese into it, as well. My browsing habits I leave to Hong Kong and Tor.
  19. Nope, crashes returned. But they stopped (for a while, will report later) when deleting (after crash) the contents of .\Chrome\User Data\Default\IndexedDB\, the youtube one, in particular.
  20. Another last post, he. It may be a residual cookie. I installed the extension "Vanilla Cookie Manager", which has the option to "Clear unwanted cookies on startup", and have had a run of running youtube, closing chrome, reopening, playing youtube, closing and so on without a crash (which would happen after two or three rounds, otherwise). Of course, this means logging in (if needed) to every service, but I do not plan to login much into more than a few sites,and clean session automatically on close, anyway. All this with 2206. Humming Owl's 9.5 has no issues.
  21. Crashes happen both vanilla and with extensions. Using the extension above sometimes stops the crashing, for a while. But i realized that running the bleachbit script I posted before, and reattached here again, seems to be more (but not always) effective. There is something that is written in the files erased by said script that makes youtube crash. The script is an adaptation of the chromium community addon to bleachbit 2.2, in yourpathtobleachbit\share\cleaners\ (check https://github.com/bleachbit/cleanerml/tree/master/pending and whereabouts). And it is something related to the youtube mainpage. Playing youtube with, for instance, last.fm does not result in crashes. 360chrome.xml
  22. I was wrong about the pp flash and npflash components. They do not do the trick. After taking out --js-flags=--noexpose_wasm from he 360loader.ini, the new version of ruffle (07-02)starts to work, but not quite yet. --js-flags=--noexpose_wasm
  23. All options enabled in "Clean All - History & Cache Cleaner" extension. Some times it works.
