I could not resist the temptation. This beauty of a firewall is still available Sygate Personal Firewall ( spf ) which you may downloaded from here :https://www.majorgeeks.com/files/details/sygate_personal_firewall_free.html I think majorgeeks seems to be a safe site. I did use it for a bit over 6 months and I found it to be rather good. The thing is I am a pc tools person ever since the days of windows 2000 nt pro. I guess the jury is out. @AstroSkipper give us your verdict then.

Yes I am. Version 18.8. Everything is tickety-boo.

Thank you @AstroSkipper It is due to my personal experience using aforesaid product which you might denote it as subjective. There is an ongoing thread Wilders Security. Please see link below : https://www.wilderssecurity.com/threads/superantispyware-updates-news.391893/ I am absolutely sure you are aware of that. Quite a few, not very encouraging comments on Reddit . Also there is this youtube video where this product is tested against 575 malware. This video is in Portuguese. You can always put English or German subtitles. I have to say that I am enjoying this new thread very much indeed. Thank you Cheers !

SUPERAntiSpyware, the only thing is good at is to remove cookies. Basically is crap. I do have it installed on my XP ( just for the cookies really) I have not used it for at least four years maybe even more. It is a waste of space.

Opera has been updated from version : 95.0.4635.80 to Version: 95.0.4635.84

I installed portable 112.3.4.3. (Release date 12/04) this morning. Everything including Secure DNS works as expected. I never got any errors or crashes from any of the Catxp versions ( 110, 111, 112 ) what so ever. Furthermore clear browsing data has been addressed. https://www.catsxp.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=168 Cheers

From catsxp forum ! As it seems chrome 112 works on Windows 7. In the foreseeable future I might give it a try.

Please Sir, do not jump to unfounded conclusions. I do not use hacks. Updated within the last supported opera 95( chrome 109 ) Kind Regards

No ! last opera is 95. There was an update within version 95. From 95 something to 95.0.4635.80.

@Cocodile Thanks a lot for your input . Much appreciated. Good to know. As it seems another alternative could be Thorium ( Someone here mentioned it, I think it was Jodie Jordan @Jody Thornton if memory serves me right ) which basically is chrome 109 with backported security patches. Of course the usual suspects such as Firefox, librewolf etc.. are still supporting Windows 7. The only thing I don't llike about them is the way they play videos. specially on YT ( stuttering, this has been going on ever since version 92 and Librewolf since version 106. ) Cheers PS: Not long ago a user complained that he could not delete cookies etc.. and catsxp told him this had something to do with the portable version or something along these lines. Later on said user stated that even though this function does not seem to work actually it does. I had to use google translate I don't speak Chinese. Do you reckon I should take this with a pinch of salt ?

Why don't you use the portable version to avoid update business. Click on underlined v 3.3.5 right below Latest Developments, then portable x32 or x64 and take your pick Anyways I'll be installing 112 when final version is out. catsxp willing of course !

@Cocodile Not that I am aware of. I tried to download ( beta 4 112.3.3.5.4 portable wx64 ) and it is working fine. cheers ! PS: I've noticed their site is kind of slow today.

Catsxp : Ver：3.3.4 Kernel：111.0.5563.100 ( final version)has been released. It is working fine on my Windows 7 x64. Under Latest Developments ( Catsxp site) 1.[*]Kernel upgrade:112.0.5615.34 2.[!]Some problems correction and detail optimization Win7+win8: Temporarily disable sandbox functionality by default If this function is enabled, the main window cannot be displayed due to creating a shared memory error! Troubleshooting the specific reason! Also from their forum : https://www.catsxp.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=295 I do hope they sort it out. Cheers

Opera browser stable version 96.0.4693.80 was released on 16/03/2023. Said browser was also updated ( W7 + W8 ) to version 95.0.4635.80. I received this update today. Then I came across this : https://blogs.opera.com/desktop/2023/03/opera-95-0-4635-80-windows-7-windows-8-update/ My take is that Opera will provide updates, at least for a while, to windows 7 +8 users Cheers

@mjd79 Just a question ! Why would you enable ssl 2.0 and ssl 3.0 since "Both SSL 2.0 and 3.0 have been deprecated by the Internet Engineering Task Force, also known as IETF, in 2011 and 2015, respectively. Over the years vulnerabilities have been and continue to be discovered in the deprecated SSL protocols (e.g. POODLE, DROWN). " Certificates do update without having to do so. Cheers
