    so this game has NO RULES ???
  2. NotHereToPlayGames
    That's what I was afraid of.

    At home, no. At work, we get them quite frequently. They have an entire forum dedicated to reporting false positives - and they are quick to fix.

    That's not a step "forward" for users that want a truly ungoogled variant. ALLOWING involuntary connections to Google services just because the non-ungoogled userbase complains louder than the ungoogled userbase ??? ??? ??? Perhaps "flags" will be added to PREVENT these involuntary connections? Because what's the point of calling something ungoogled if you allow involuntary connections?

    I agree. I really don't know where to draw the line. Not trying to take both sides, lol I do feel that "bringing negativity" from OTHER forums onto this forum only EXTENDS that negativity "another generation", so to speak. BROADENS the diameter of negativity. Folks that would have otherwise NEVER known about the negativity, now know about the negativity - just which "side" did that really HELP? But of course, TECHNICAL ISSUES should be SHARED. But again, just which "side" is BENEFITED from sharing the types of negativities that if it were self-contained all within MSFN, our admins would point the negative poster or PM "the baited" instructions how to use the "ignore feature".

    No prob here. As I've stated hundreds of times, browser choice is always always always a matter of PERSONAL PREFERENCE. There will never ever ever be a "one size fits all". The more, the merrier. I've never replied to any "which browser works best" with anything other than "we cannot make that choice for you, you will have to try several and decide for yourself". I'm also NOT a fan of "aero". Not a fan of "transparent" toolbars in 10 either.

    I actually think what he's trying to do is for one.example.com two.example.com three.example.com www.example.com and what you are proposing will only work for example.com

    I don't disagree. But... um... I don't disagree with "them" either. "They" have a different audience then "we" do. Whether we like to admit it or not, "their" future is HELD BACK *if* they bend over backwards for "us". Seriously, where do you think NM27, NM28, St52, or St55 would really REALLY be today if they tried to maintain compatibility with Win 3.1 or Win 3.11? The difference is, as I see it, is that MSFN Members acknowledge that "both can coexist". I cannot confirm nor deny if they think the same. Because let's also admit that most of us MSFN Members only "read" what's going on "over there" when somebody brings the "negatives" over to MSFN. I do not follow their forum. I don't exactly agree with "us" being updated when anti-MSFN or anti-XP posts are posted "over there". It's why I have a privacy fence at the house. Neighbor's weed-filled lawn compared to my grass-only, not a single solitary "broadleaf" -- fence = "out of sight, out of mind".

    Maybe I'm misunderstanding, but this sounds "bad" to me. ie, one can "google" without the gstatic trackers, one can "bing" without the azureedge trackers. One should be able to "x" without the x trackers.
  10. NotHereToPlayGames
    So Edge's anti-tracking works? Or is working "too good"? And Firefox's anti-tracking does NOT work? Or working "sufficiently"?

    That and anybody that has ever used Malwarebytes knows that it "detects" things that have nothing to do with "vulnerabilities". It has to find SOMETHING so that the userbase gets that warm fuzzy feeling in their gut. That's how Malwarebytes establishes brand loyalty.

    What comes around, goes around. I basically view it all as NO DIFFERENT than FIREFOX (and Linux) mentality from the 90s and 2000s. We have ALL seen it over the years, ask a non-Firefox (or Windows) question, and you are riduculed and mocked and told to "switch to Firefox" (or "switch to Linux"). Again - what comes around, goes around. BUT... If we are to be truly honest, even "this" XP USER did that to a Win10 Users just a couple months ago! My own sister was having issues with Edge on Win10 and with her wireless printer and my FIRST reply to her was I DON'T HAVE THOSE ISSUES ON MY XP. She still have printer issues - but her Edge issues were resolved by having her try a roytam browser and by trying official Pale Moon (she ended up chosing the latter). All fine and dandy to me - I've always always always felt that browser choice is ENTIRELY up to the browsee's PERSONAL PREFERENCE.
  15. NotHereToPlayGames
    Yep, saw that. Somebody posted a screencap because now you have to be signed in to be able to read that forum.

    Will take your word for it. I do not "troll" that forum. I have no clue of this poor soul's thinking - past, present, or future. I do know that even here at MSFN, we have "rib pokers" so yeah, one has to learn to see them as such and IGNORE THEM.
  19. NotHereToPlayGames
    The "comment" didn't look that "bad" to me. A "rib poke" only escalates if the owner of the rib "reacts impulsively" instead of "acting consciously". The "comment" was nothing more than a "rib poke". To me, it looked more like a *TEST* - some sort of "watch this, I'll post this and then I'll monitor MSFN, now I will know what members there also read here".

    I'd also add that *NONE* of us MSFN XP Users have a "setup" like that BIASED video used. They opened all ports, set everything to lowest security possible, didn't NAT on LAN behind a router, you name it. They *WANTED* to be *INFECTED* and so they "configured" their XP to *BECOME* infected. By all means, DO THAT TYPE OF SETUP in 7, 8, 10, and 11 and "report your findings".
  21. NotHereToPlayGames
    I've seen that video before. I am unable to replicate. Granted, my XP install *never* (and I mean *NEVER*) connects to the internet *without* Proxomitron filtering/blocking those connections. Personally, I would love to see this same exact "test" be performed on 7, 8, 10, and 11. Do you really think for one second that Malwarebytes won't find similar with 7, 8, 10, and 11 "if installed the same way as the test-case XP" ???

    I prefer Proxy Switchy Auto version 1.2.2. With it, if a web site is "sourced" by three different servers, I can send each server through its own Proxy, none of the three servers know they each served content to one end-user.
  23. NotHereToPlayGames
    Because MSFN would cease to exist if it weren't for - 1) People with very old hardware trying to run modern web browsers 2) People with very new hardware trying run or "look like" very old operating systems

    I've seen the browser-level fill-login broken in the past as well! It's actually why I use an Autofill extension nowadays. A ran into a lot of web sites where the browser-level fill-login would remember the USERNAME but would NOT remember the PASSWORD. Some of those were with an "input" parameter that could be REMOVED by PROXOMITRON, but not all were that "simple". As far as workig on 11 but no longer on 7, I wonder if it's a "ssl cert" algorithm? I've seen portable browser, exact profile, work in 10 but not on XP all on account of ssl encryption algorithm.
