  1. Firefox 60 on deviantart.com works fast enough for me. Pentium 4 CPU. Although the site has a modern design, of course. Try enabling multiprocessing in Serpent 52 or use the Mypal 68 browser. The most creepy site is youtube.com.
  2. The Internet via i2p-outproxy (with *bound.length=1) feels faster than accessing internal http://*.i2p sites. And it seems to me that the incoming speed depends on the outgoing speed. Which would be a problem on asymmetric devices like ADSL and 3G modems. For example, I have an incoming speed on the browser side of 45 kbytes/s (modem side after i2p is 65 kbytes/s), i.e. overhead x1.5. Outgoing parasitic i2p traffic is 18 kbytes/s (modem maximum is 50 kbytes/s). But if I open second stream through proxy, all figures are doubled. I would be interested to know your i2p speed and your type of internet connection. I think that disabling nat, turning on upnp and using an external ip address (able to accept incoming connections) should improve the situation. kbyte≠kbit. As for the browser, there are some parameters that make sense to set as in Tor browser. For example, proxy, js, referer, agent, override, onion, accept, ipv6, language, http3. By the way, I found out what the last official build of tor.exe is running on XP. It's 0.4.4.6 (12 Nov 2020). 0.4.5.6 (15 Feb 2021) the next build doesn't work. In fact, there is also version 0.4.4.9 (14 Jun 2021), but it exists only as source code. It contains some backports from new versions (fixes from ddos attacks, vulnerabilities). Tor has several branches developing in parallel, which is confusing. In addition, they don't immediately add new versions of tor.exe to the Tor browser.
  3. I understand. You can use i2p-outproxy in i2pd instead of Tor. This is quite rare tool, also anonymous (anonymity level is configurable) and works on XP. You won't get banned on websites (non-Tor IP) and the ISPs don't know much about i2p. Unfortunately, the speed is not good. i2p is quite a slow network. Instructions: Clarification: a. Create the missing folders, b. Replace USER with your Windows username c. Turn on the display of hidden files, if necessary d. Turn on the display of file extensions 1. Unzip i2pd.exe from i2pd_2.42.1_winxp_mingw.zip (or newer) to C:\Program Files\i2pd\i2pd.exe. The other files in the archive are not needed. 2. Create file C:\Documents and Settings\USER\Application Data\i2pd\i2pd.conf with this content: log=stdout loglevel=none daemon=false service=false close=minimize nat=true ipv4=true ipv6=false notransit=false floodfill=false ssu=true [http] enabled=true address=127.0.0.1 port=7070 auth=false [httpproxy] enabled=true address=127.0.0.1 port=4444 addresshelper=true inbound.length=1 inbound.quantity=5 outbound.length=1 outbound.quantity=5 outproxy=exit.stormycloud.i2p [socksproxy] enabled=true address=127.0.0.1 port=4447 inbound.length=1 inbound.quantity=5 outbound.length=1 outbound.quantity=5 outproxy.enabled=false outproxy=127.0.0.1 outproxyport=9050 [sam] enabled=true [bob] enabled=false [i2cp] enabled=false [i2pcontrol] enabled=false [upnp] enabled=false name=I2Pd [ntcp2] enabled=true published=true [nettime] enabled=true ntpservers=0.pool.ntp.org,1.pool.ntp.org ntpsyncinterval=72 3. Run C:\Program Files\i2pd\i2pd.exe (you can create a shortcut). 4. Wait 15 minutes (this time is needed to establish a reliable connection to the network) 5. In your browser set the HTTP proxy 127.0.0.1, port 4444. And also HTTPS (or SSL) proxy 127.0.0.1, port 4444 6. Open http://exit.stormycloud.i2p in your browser. Select reg.i2p, then "Addresshelper: Go to site", then "Continue" (If necessary, you can repeat it for http://stormycloud.i2p). This is adding a DNS entry to your i2p router. 7. You can surf anonymously enough* through i2p-outproxy 8. To shutdown i2pd, click the i2pd context menu in the tray and select "Graceful shutdown". It may take up to 10 minutes to shutdown. 9. Statistics: "Show app" or "Open console" items. It is actually possible to trace your IP, but difficult (no one will do it). If you set inbound.length and outbound.length to 2 or 3 you will become truly anonymous, but the speed will decrease even more. These numbers indicate the number of intermediate nodes (e.g. Tor has 3). The intermediate nodes in i2p change every 10 minutes. You can replace outproxy=exit.stormycloud.i2p with outproxy=purokishi.i2p or outproxy=acetone.i2p:8888 But purokishi has some censorship, and acetone has Tor IP at the exit. Only edit i2pd.conf when i2pd.exe is not running. Don't overload i2p-outproxy with heavy traffic.
  4. In Vista, it depends on 32 or 64 bit (64 bit systems require signed drivers) and whether there is an extended kernel. On vanilla 32 bit Vista the situation is like this (openvpn): 2.3.18 - doesn't work 2.4.6 - works 2.4.9 - doesn't work (if you take out TAP driver 602 with 7zip from build 2.4.6 and replace existing driver, it works) TAP driver provides a virtual network adapter. If openssl 1.1.1 is there, then 1.0.2 is not needed. The only inconvenience of openvpn 2.5.4-xp is that you have to add some parameters to all ovpn configs. But the speed is higher than 10 mbps and new ciphers. Look up https://web.archive.org/ page https://www.torproject.org/download/tor where XP/Vista is still mentioned (I think 2020-2021). Windows Expert Bundle. If the web archive didn't save the zip file, you can download it from here https://archive.torproject.org/tor-package-archive/torbrowser/ (tor-win32-0.4.X.X.zip) Specify socks5 proxy 127.0.0.1:9050 in your browser. Looks like Tor is blocked in your country. The torrc file from my archive has the most popular options (in my opinion). You can google them. Well, and I can make a description of them. shadowsocks is usually used if your ISP blocks certain sites. Are there any in your country? The anonymity of shadowsocks is not good. It is better to use a VPN.
  5. I rebuilt openvpn-2.3.18 with new openssl. Except for the tap driver. There is little practical benefit from this, of course. Theoretically the security is higher. openssl 1.0.2zd is the long term support version available only to premium customers (usually large companies) for $50,000/year. However, source code has been found online. Now there is already 1.0.2zf, but nobody has posted the sources publicly yet. The installer originally had openssl 1.0.2 from 2017. Free support for openssl 1.0.2 ended in December 2019.
  6. I watched Teletext a long time ago. Cool technology, but unfortunately it's hard to capture (?). Whereas NTSC CC subtitles even go through a VHS VCR and then digitized to DVD.
  7. This window may also appear next time, if you for example deny IE access to Microsoft servers.
  8. Glad you found my build useful. I've been getting into cross-compilation lately. Console applications so far. My dream is to build the actual shadowsocks proxy for XP. At least some Matrix client (messenger). openvpn 2.4x-2.5x. Recently built a new x264.exe encoder.
  9. I haven't used the Tor Browser for a long time. Instead, I use console Tor + various third-party more useful and lighter browsers (Pale Moon, SeaMonkey, Opera 12). It's less safe, I know. But the original Tor Browser has not supported XP for a long time (it's based on Firefox 52). On XP, you can replace it with Serpent 52, for example. You can install Tor as a windows service and it won't bother you. It's possible to run different applications through it, such as a torrent client or an e-mail program.
  10. Compiling golang code is very easy. Install golang, add it to the PATH. Go into working folder and write go build. In case of cross compilation Linux>Windows: export GOARCH=386 export GOOS=windows go build But the last golang which installs and creates XP compatible code is go 1.10 (very old). Newer versions of go are not compatible with XP, unfortunately. I managed to build psiphon command line with go 1.10 for xp. And some people have patched and built the latest dnscrypt.
  11. Hello, I compiled and made the updated tor.exe work on XP. Test it if you like. XP support officially ended in the fall of 2021, if I'm not mistaken. Or 2020. https://github.com/artenax/tor-xp/releases One Core API libraries provide the missing functions: KERNEL32.DLL AcquireSRWLockExclusive InitializeConditionVariable InitializeSRWLock ReleaseSRWLockExclusive SleepConditionVariableSRW WakeAllConditionVariable WakeConditionVariable SHLWAPI.DLL > MPR.DLL WNetRestoreConnectionA
  12. If Telegram was controlled by the FSB, would the Russian authorities have intercepted the SMS to gain access to an opposition activist's account? This was followed by a media scandal. It would be much easier to read quietly on the server. Pavel Durov left Russia long ago.
  13. Congratulations on the anniversary. Windows XP was my first system, since I had a computer. I have used it most of my life: 2005-2012 Windows XP 2012-2015 Windows 7 x64 2015-2017 Windows XP 2017-2021 Xubuntu 16.04 x86 And now I miss Windows (XP) again. Do you encode H.264 on Linux with HandBrake? Unfortunately, HandBrake stopped supporting Windows XP and x86 architecture very early. But there is other software. And I compiled a fresh console x264.exe that works on Windows XP.
