I still have a copy of the 5/22 version that runs on XP. I'm uploading a copy here.
I tried renaming the "hostlist.txt" file from the new version to "top100.txt," as used in the old version. Surprisingly, it wouldn't run with the new file!
So I surmised the old version only allows 100 host names in "top100.txt," and split "hostlist.txt" into two files with 100 entries each. That worked. Whichever file is named "top100.txt" is used. You just have to run it, rename the "top100" files, and run it again.
BTW, no alert on Amazon or Paypal with this version. (But I know alerts work with this version, from my earlier experiment with ProxHTTPSProxyMII.)
Also, although you can't resize the window, you can sort by any column by clicking the header.
Thanks for the XP update version
. I see several handshake failure (Root CA) -> NA (result) but zero alert/detection
It could be helpful to print a log file just to overcome the no-resizing window.

So summing up, the correct work of MSE can only be gained by removing the registry POS hack and by running MSEU v1.9.
No problem accessing registry from an adjacent partition with other OS (vista/w7/8/10) but i'd like to ask if is it possibile to design some kind of script that you can just run in XP/Posready system and automatically, during rebooting, it removes the POS hack.

I used Office 2007 which theoretically doesn't need anyone of that 13 Compatibility Pack (as docx are the standard format for Office 2007) but in past i was forced to install a lot of this Compatibility updates in XP and more often on Vista because of the well know windows update hanging problem.
Can i uninstall it at all now or there could be issues?

I made it run but it didn't even start. In task manager i see one process qmc.exe appearing and after 1 second disappearing by itself.
Is it a good sign?

Just curious if Microsoft Baseline Security Analyzer addresses missing KB4500331 & KB4024402 (not automatic updates) as severe security leaks in a POS/XP system.

Could it be another MS kind of arrow against XP users?
Making unusable their mailing system on the most popular browser leaves wide doubts.

It seems that outlook/hotmail accounts don't work anymore on chrome 49.0.2623.112 (last xp supported).
The inbox windows is overall blank. I've disabled + removed all the extensions but nothing changes.

Force gmail, youtube, and the like into a "Google" container where you can sign in and stay signed in - but don't force google.com itself into that container. Then sign out of Google in your "default" container, which is where you'll be searching from most of the time. There's no reason to make it easy for Google tie every bloody search you do to your Google ID, and this extension makes protecting your privacy easy and painless.
I'm quite sure (for reading in the past google conditions) that google can always connect informations gathered from research and all others activities (logged or not) and associate them to the device id used.
So even if you stay un-logged from Google World, the Google World is always logged into you.

Just installed the fix ( esr 52.9.1 ) All of the ones "affected " I mean the proceed with caution warning went back to normal except of course legacy ublock origin as expected.
I've just installed the armageddon fix on 52.9.0ESR and still can't install uBlock-firefox-legacy-1.16.4.10 because the extension can't be verified. Is an armageddon fake?

4 hours ago, Sampei.Nihira said:The Exploit Test Tool is a very specific test to evaluate the areas of intervention or not of the Anti-Exploit.
OSA has been specifically designed to be combined with other security softwares.
With regard to an overlap of intervention that could inhibit softwares, given that I myself collaborated with the developer Andreas on many improvements, I exclude it categorically.Especially for MBAE + OSA in the versions I use in Windows XP.That's great, thank for the reassurance!

On a fresh XP-POSREADY post-marathon WU i found:
NOT INSTALLED:
KB4018466
KB4019204
KB4024402
INSTALLED:
KB4022747
KB4024323
KB4025218
It remains a mistery in MS mind why a Posready system did not benefit in automatic from the red updates.
And it's ridicolous that Microsoft Baseline Security Analyzer doesn't give any advice on such important lacking updates.

Here is the result of my work in a few days. It is also necessary to test in different combinations of versions of IE 6, 7, 8 and WMP 9, 10, 11. In the folder of each language, 208 updates, updates for each component are in their own folder.
It seems a very strong repository, multilanguage updates give it a respectable plus: hoping something like that can be accessible when it will be required after WU servers dismiss.

Sorry yes, I'm not using Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit, I'm using what is now called Malwarebytes 3.
3.5.1 is the last XP compatible version of that.I tried 3.5.1 and found it very slow while the last v2 version (2.2.1.1043) is working greatly together with last MBAE
On 5/3/2019 at 6:00 PM, Sampei.Nihira said:These 2 softwares installed together therefore guarantee excellent protection.
Any chances these 2 softwares can go in conflict in a real exploit situation over the 15/23 common tasks?

Well, NM28 is gaining advantage over others. Didn't expect this, cause my experience was not so good in terms of addons/extensions, finding Basilisk 52 a lot more flexible.
Drastically, i would say that with Basisisk 52 on XP i'm sure i can access every site i could access with Chrome(70+)/FFQuantum(57+) on W7 and I can use the same extensions (version 52 related):
so B-52 is the definitive browser (and an agreeable coktail, too
)
But, that's my experience (right for me/wrong for others). Could be interesting if others can summarise PRO and CONS of these poll competitor for their daily usage on XP systems.

That are good starting point. I made use of little registry mods. Generally in a fresh installed XP i always launched the last working XP installer (151/152) to install JAVA and then brutally extract the new .exe installer (jre-8u211-windows-i586.exe) and replace it in the programs file. The dream would be a little cmd workaround that automate the process to get last updated java.

I suggest Repartition Bad Drive. It can isolate the defective cluster preventing access. A lot of disks (that would be worth of garbage) can be saved and still works like a charme.

Well, the circle is closed and MSFN, with all such a great members here, gave a immeasurable support to mantain XP alive.
Thank you.
Also update some broken guide links could be helpful to preserve installation/use of XP
The links provided here are unreachable: a re-link to this guide can adjust it.

3) Control panel -> Pc security center -> Automatic updates -> Disable automatic updates
oh no, doing so you'll never know if MS will give an update for POSReady2009 in next years as they did it in 2017 about Wannacry for XP after 3 years of EOS

I've never used 45 ESR SSE cause processor (despite older) support SSE2.
Well, i'm trying the Roytam1 (firefox-45.9.15-20190330-449d61309-win32-sse.7z) and i can see a huge speed improvement also without patch
I know that 45ESR SSE can have compatibility issue with sereval web pages and plugins, but for the less ram consume seems to be on increased system .

Good work!!! I've installed it on Roytam1 Firefox 45 ESR and i've seen a huge improvement in fluidity/reactivity giving quite similar performance to Chrome 49. On old processors (no SSE or very early SSE capable) it's worthy of application.

Just one question: what language pack do you use for 45 FF ESR? I've tried the Thunderbird 45* but it's not compatible with "nightly" version of FF
