[My Browser Builds (Part 2)]

i am now on FF 45 ESR-working FB slow. one can say stable till now.
Update: PM 27-SSE + FB
Hurrah-FB seems to have found out they made a mistake. i can surf the site. nothing covered also here.but a bit slow FB .its 6AM in europe.

it all(capacitor plague on both open PCs) started mid-june 2018-one month before my fathers(96) death.good i visited him a last time days before but was busy for weeks.
Both are universal SATA-IDE-MOBOs. and i still like asrock. WAs was on ASROCK with Win7 when suddenly booting was not possible anymore pc like dead. i know this kind of problem and workarounds. often cleaning contacts helped but also resoldering electrical points and replacing battery-case. Open MOBOs and a lot of cables touched by my left leg were nothing positive.
I know both PCS now byheart. I could reactivate both then concentrated on the older GA since i needed a backup-pc anyhow. Even thought about establishing two identical ones. but both are slow and few space here.
Yes will now study the pref-and UOC-PATCH thing. But help is needed since i cannot install these browsers. but i will retry.
Where should i find the profiles to backup?

One thing to watch out for: the file names are different (e.g., UOC_Patch_38.js vs. UOC_Patch_45.js). So besides copying the _38.js files, you also need to delete the *_45.js files you copied earlier; otherwise NM 27 will load both and the result will probably not be what you want!

I have no Palemoon-folder in Programme(german). I explained installer non-working. palemoonx86 is empty so is 64 bit version. maybe created during my installation-trials. so i must surf to palemoon-folders which will be changed after every update? i am extracting updates into seperate folders. as i said installer non-working.
will first install patch for FF 45ESR where i didnt yet patch UOC. and remove the wrong one beforehand in Palemoon-folder. i have a FF-folder in Programme but its from earlier FF-installations. So where to install the patches? yes i know the workaround but must run FF and PM outside programs aka programme-folder.

i have these folders: I removed wrongly set FF-patch in PM-folder. maybe i didnt backup prefs.js beforehand.
so i must extract/copy UOC Patch to prefs-folder beside channel-prefs?

@3dreal What are the specs of your machine? I do not have Facebook, but I believe that Facebook should have no issues with Firefox 45 ESR SSE by Roytam1. Back when I was on Facebook (a very short time, as I don't like social networks) it ran perfectly fine in mobile mode with the UOC Patch. If I wanted to use Facebook Messenger, I used the Facebook Messenger plugin for Pidgin. It worked wonderfully and perhaps there's a similar plugin for Miranda NG as well.

About Youtube videos, you can just use YT 2 Player to automatically redirect videos to VLC, or if you really want to watch them in browser, just download GreaseMonkey and the Viewtube script, in order to replace the HTML5 player with a VLC window (once you choose VLC, of course). I watch Youtube videos at 576p without issues. Previously, with the overclocked 6800GT, I watched them at 480p. Don't forget to use UAControl to block the user agent so Youtube will switch to the old, more lightweight layout. It scrolls like butter on my Tualatin.

Keep in mind you need at least a DirectX 9.0C and a 128 bit buss (256 bit is preferred) graphics card in order to enjoy the benefits of the UOC Patch.Give it a try before dumping your old computer. If I can comfortably browse the web on a Pentium III-S, you can do pretty much the same. Provided you have the suitable parts and you meet the requirements of the Patch.

sorry now correct. had a kmeleon-crash again when editing. new data lost... should have saved before restarting.
better editing outside and posting then. here the old message:

1. Videocard is strong enough but has a driver-problem. resolution reduced and screen squeezed then. MOBO has multiple problems due to capacitor-plague. Its not that grave. cannot or do not want to switch MOBO since second PC (SSE2) is not setup again. same capacitor plague problem have a huge thread in sysopt-forum, better not reading since complicated, need time and strong nerves. but i learnt a lot in last 15 months about how pcs are really working.
Gigabyte GA-7N400 Pro 2-universal SATA-IDE-Raid MOBO. SSE   4/200 other drives boot-dead and second has a loginui.exe problem. must urgently do a full back, systenpartition first. not enough space on systempartition. 3 partitions. second= copy of systempartition(was a mistake since now not enough space) yes will not change partition. could be suicide now.
2nd SSE-2 PC. Asrock Alive -Dual eSata 2. was wonderfully working had w2k(still have drives), Winxp and Win7-drives. everythink ok. 16/2TB. Have now multiple MOBOs of both brands.  quickest possible processor.
some capacitors are ill, the one who is resposible to hold cmos-data is ill/dead. cannot switch PSU totally offline or i must reenter setting during every boot.
2. did now a smartdefrag2-using also perfectdisk 11 and defraggler. i am switching. should defrag more often.
3. there are/were some strange things now in about.config. search was nonworking anymore.

Drive seems clean and temperatures ok. replaced ram and videocard. pc full open outside case. yet i am cooling HDD from outside(with multi-protected ice-brick! plus fan-rig.
I am here with Kmeleon
Will first backup and when in 1TB drive i will tryout what you suggested. systempartition must be enlarged.
Best i will do a complete new setup. First i want to reactivate second PC. Or i will install i7 beforehand. One bank is forcing us to use win10 for ebanking at 2020. but i have netbook and phablet. also there not powerful enough but lightweight netbook. ok to surf and leaving data alone.
4. yes never touched profiles did that in earlier Firefoxes.
Pls give me hints/link how to renew profiles for all browsers i can use: FF 45 ESR, Kmeleon and PM 27SSE.

@Kitaro1
I'm absolutely with you here. It's a real Killer-Trap that different browsers share the same profile, without any warning. Even advanced users need a LOT of experience to even consider such a possibility before trying a new browser. Even when fully aware it's a fork.
Am just not sure how difficult it would be to change this behavior. Or if there's any chance that at least a new "parallel" profile is created? (Absolutely love being able to choose from parallel profiles at startup, a native Mozilla function since ages, no idea if still possible in 'modern' versions now)
But IMO at the very least a confirmation/warning should pop up when installing/unzipping a new browser and it adopts an already existing profile.

@3dreal:
if not noticed yet, mobile facebook URL is "mobile.facebook.com"
Some sites don't respect mobile URLs though and redirect to full desktop size, if the useragent is not a mobile string too. If you like a GUI to change UAs in KM, I recommand my useragents2018-macro ;-) It makes full use of the native engine functions, toggling only prefs, doing nothing else, and contrary to other macros allows to fake the global default UA too.

I have replaced www. by m. but FB is so rudementarily then its better changing  to KMeleon. the only FB-browser for SSE.  do i need an addon there.
What about alternative to Nocript in PM? Https Everywhers-since advised-also deactivated. Complete YT saver nonworking-once worked. Is not important now. and some videos on WMP are buggy too. will use an alternative player. or change MOBO or PC finally. enought lost lifetime!

Try using the UOC Patch and the Enforcer, if you are using an old computer. See if it makes a difference.

@3dreal Why don't you try FF45 ESR SSE alongside the UOC Patch and the Enforcer?

I did really finally install UOC Patch but didnt know about Enforcer. But if i dont err i installed in PM/NM27 for SSE. Whats next?
UPDATE:
have found the UOC-thread. site already closed.

and found out: wrong UOC-patch Firefox 45 to PM 27-sse used. how to rectify before right installation?

I didnt see any improvements. PM-crashes are Facebook-related before FB made this terrible update. cannot be used anymore but crippled with the m.facebook-trick see roytam1s trick by preplacing www. to m. better forgetting FB with palemoon on SSE.  maybe its my machine only.
So UOC only for FF45 ESR SSE? and Enforcer on your site?

I am using Kmeleon for FB and MSFN-board since when i surf here, not logged in yet-i am getting a blue wall. very few visible. cannot use the board with PM-SSE then. Cannot switch to alternative drive since there i have a login-problem and other drive are boot-dead. only could save back older backup to new drive. or new winxp-setup(dont have time now).

MS and FB are about to kill PM! thats clear, no doubt about it. Yahoo is killing its groups all data will be deleted soon.....! Geocities free was killed 2009 etc.

Beside this:I will go back to analoge(photography) being independent. And since i am a lucky pensionist i dont need to deliver anything to anyone but to me....
Update: cannot use PM and MSFN anymore its so buggy. switching back and forth between correct screen and blue wall. i am now on Kmeleon which seems to crash also from time to time, wheras PM_SSE(if i dont err will observe) is crashing in FB mainly. Yes i have a hardware-problem. not enough space etc.
----------------------------------------
UPDATE: PM/NM 27-SSE + FB
Surprised that i could see a user-video-was life-replay here. and almost perfect reg. sound.
Didnt yet change anything reg. prefs.
Will do the KMeleon-profile-workaround. but i am still unsure since i cannot install it. Do i have to find profiles at different locations?Every update has its own folder from where i am starting KM. its on second partition. maybe i should try saving next update in system partition? to make installation working.

Till now i did only adjust PM/NM 27 when updating where it was needed. Adjustments must be made after upates and resets. Very strange: since some weeks search in about:config is not working. i mean if there is an entry present already still search doesnt display it. so then i always have to check to be sure. i will observe.
 

[My Browser Builds (Part 2)]

I am using Kmeleon now with FB.
I am still unsure whats the right FB-adress in PM/NM 27.  They announced soon they will not support this browser anymore. They are very creative to execute. since i have got an error when adding m. infront. www.m.facebook.com then?
2. resetting PW:  i have got the resetlink-a bit long delay on the alternative email. I will ignore since i switched to a different third one.

Will now check if i am getting notifications again in newest mailbox.
3. Noscript. Whats the alternative? on PM27-SSE?

try using m.facebook.com then. they'll force users to update their browsers by using more bleeding-edge js functions.

1. m.facebook.com IS WORKING.
2. i am now in here again, had to change email twice. first new email didnt get through. could be both are blocked.

3. Can i send you PM? I have a different solution for FB.
4. Explorer and PM/NM still are crashing from time to time. Old location will be reached again even when one has started writing.
Yes pc is clean and organized -defragged etc.
 

[My Browser Builds (Part 2)]

1. Very big problems with loging here in PM/NM 27 SSE. worked finally after installing update and adjusting all settings. but today login-problems again.

I tried all possible browsers. yes also tried to whitelist in noscript. it was greyed out maybe admin.rights needed. will retry.

I am now in Chrome and it worked. at least i know now which PW is really working.

2. Bigger problem is-since Nov 5th-Tuesday after FB implemented update(they warned browser will not be supported anymore soon) .
here is what i get. after starting to read and scrolling there is a grey surface covering background. one can write, answer but its in nebula and messenger non visible.navigating a mess.

I dont like Suckerberg.
3. I still dont get notifications. yes i understood and set correctly, screenshot following
 i will try to change email. maybe its blocked by you due to possible email-spoofing.
UPDATE: No wonder i didnt see below Save-button are more setting. Why is this button not at the end? see second image.
 

[My Browser Builds (Part 2)]

Where is the trigger for email-subscription of this part2-thread. since part 1(til page 200) is closed i  dont get email-messages anymore.
SSE-installation
btw: I am now using portable loader-in the same directory like updates. each in its own. Because installer not working. we discussed it seems my pcs failure.
When time is ripe I will generate an SSE-sticky here. Have videodownload-workaround not implemented at the moment and  there are still palemoon 27-crashes. Maybe due to videodriver-problem-cannot solve at the moment or all trials didnt help. new-same type videocard didnt help.
Update: Have found it under Notifications but its looking completely different than yours in PM27-SSE. Where yours is on upper right side its showing Follow and No of people following and showing them after clicked.

Hello, you can eliminate calls to "EncodePointer", "DecodePointer" and "GetLogicalProcessorInformation" since Windows XP RTM / SP1 does not have these dependencies in kernel32, but Windows XP SP2 does. At least do it with New Moon 27 since Windows XP SP1 in Pentium II works better than SP2 / SP3.

And another question how do I make YouTube play videos on New Moon 27?

I have a sticky here somewhere backwards. But its not yet updated/maybe a bit confusive. and in my own i have german remarks.
But maybe this is enough to make YT running again. Downloading is another thing.
UPDATE means must be adjusted after new PM-version installed/running. i cannot run the installer. see old message.
From my detailed Sticky 2

6.a)
media.av1.enabled   true  UPDATE
b)
media.mediasource.webm.enabled  true  ONLY CHANGE(from false) AFTER A RESET /UPDATE(NEW)
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9329306

Q: VP9 Support? (for PM27) NOT IN FIREFOX SEE 6.
 a) VP9 works if async MSE option is unchecked  UPDATE
Extras/Tools, Einstellungen/Preferences, Inhalt/Content   

b)  and "Enable MSE for WebM Video" checked in options.
Youtube only used VP9 with MSE but even then not all content is available as VP9, some is only available as H.264/MSE.

You can check https://www.youtube.com/html5 to see what your browser supports.

maybe the lav-files and ffmpeg-workaround is also needed. pls let us know if YT is working now.

already read, tried, but nothing helped. also asked selling agent of mainboard and they told be I have to grab the board to their office for further diagnosis

check also realtek-forum.
i would spend you 100 usd for a new identical MOBO hoping the others can also do. Then you could send them for control.Always good to have replacement MOBOs. saved me multiple times.
 

I only hope the capacitor-plague is extincted forever. Thats why my next Highend-MOBO will be military-certified. Also had to use an audio-stick since connector worn out. old problem. the industry is thinking about that.

I also had audiodriver-problems. no sound. when switching between the versions one must set the right one in windows audio-control-panel. it will not be reset/adjusted automatically. at least true for my pcs/winxp.

------------------------

Update: If not yet done. Bios-update. shut down pc totally. do a cmos-clear and Replace  old battery/wait 30 min. then the necessary steps in cmos-setup. If it doesnt help I would  go to MOBO x-forum. Asus right?
2. Bios-refresh Make cmos/bios-backup first and then needed steps. read precisely the instructions.

OK, so that's Quantum-based with the "Photon" interface, right? My first thought was, "that couldn't run on XP;" but:

On Windows 7, it certainly looks like Photon (and a bit too much like M$ Edge). I can't test it on XP until Monday; in the meantime, can anyone confirm? https://www.comodo.com/home/browsers-toolbars/icedragon-browser.php

(Warning: a dialog box will pop up offering to install "Comodo cloud Antivirus" and change your home page and default search engine to Yahoo on all supported browsers. You must click the teeny "Decline" button if you don't want to do that. Seems a bit PUPpy to me....)

A Quantum browser would have drawbacks; the chief ones being no legacy extensions and no NPAPI plug-ins (except Flash). Still, a Quantum browser on XP would be quite a feat.

Browsercrashes during/after installation: Winxp SSE
They cannot be used on SSE-PC.
Basilisk crash after installation
Slimjet dito/the same
Chrome installation crash
Lunascape dito
Icedragon dito
Lightshot no SSE

Opera SSE2 ok
Seamonkey SSE2 ok
Cometbird must rechecked most probably no winxp-SSE

Febe is most fantastic most important Backup-Plugin for Extensions, Bookmarks etc. He even still has a version for Palemoon 27(SSE-version). There is a FEBE-forum. Pls support Chucks work then.

Could you clarify, please? Do you mean it doesn't launch at all under Windows XP with an SSE-only CPU, or that it doesn't offer the option to install the SSE-only flavour of the New Moon 27[9.6] browser? 

If it's the latter, I'm sure @i430VX will, at least, consider implementing this useful for you option in the near future; just keep in mind this is a volunteer project offered as-is and maintained during one's own spare time - not to mention managing a server to host it and the cost of the associated bandwidth...

the menue will open and will show also newmoon then winxp 64 newmoon 28 or something like that. not the one SSE-users need. yes i followed all threads. and i know it had been promised. i can live with it. maybe when installer is working i dont have to make the adjustments after every update. adjustment must be made with a reset anyway. i have crashes. but it may be my pcs fault. not enough space(8 gb) on systempartition.

dont complain get new domain from novatrend.ch different prices also.lower and higher

Found the answer in a german palemoon-forum. Could solve by starting in safemode and resetting only user preferences. english version now visible. yes will remove german LP.
I can now start with implementations from scratch.
BTW: Wanted to update my Sticky(what must be done to have everything integrated). have very little time and the installer-problem/question for my SSE had not yet been answered. something happened when i tried the installer but i have no clues what was going on. Maybe a readme for the installer would be wise. Thanks

Added Later: @dencorso (message below) did explain it for me. To each, their own.

He needs SP3 and Mai 2014 Rollup explicitely otherwise endless problems. I must know since spent endless amount of time reviving old SSE-PC(this one) after capacitor-plague-problems stopped it and new ones occured. That was also my luck finding marvelous altered browsers like Palemoon 27 SSE.

It´s strange because it passes almost a month now since i ran the update files and it keeps saying that updates are current.

I ask also if that 2 files ".exe" i ran, in fact have updated it´s virus definitions ...

there is a workaround with a hotfix. in the forum is a thread of mine. Non-SSE2-Hotfix see attached file from forum over there. link to hotfix can be found there. its Malwarebytes_2.1.8_SSE2_Hotfix.zip
was very surprised about the speed of response.
If needed i can add full instructions downwards. Maybe somebody can find the link to the forum-thread over there. I could also attach the hotfix if allowed. link  needed since Malwarebytes 2.2.1 is also needed. app, hotfix and instructions
Malwarebytes 2.2.1 is highest to use with SSE-PC. 

Precisely do what is recommended. Dont panic slowly do it step by step its easy.
