XP/Vista-compatible clients for modern email services?
Mark-XP replied to Mathwiz's topic in Windows XP
Thank you @Jody Thornton, MailNews(32 bit) runs nicely in both of my Windows environments, XP/32 and Win7/64, but i'll try out Epyrus anyway - since it seems to be maintained slighty stronger. -

May i ask you @Jody Thornton, why you did switch, and, which are the (main) advantages. I like the MailNews/TB2 look very much, so, maybe you use the ClassicTB2 Theme for Epyrus coincidentally - does it work fine? -

If Serpent looses the session (which happens very rarely) one can also proceed this way: 1. Open at least a second tab, 2. Quit the browser, and 3. Copy the recovery.js in <profile>\sessionstore-backups to sessionstore.js in the <profile> folder. At least this method worked for me (approximately once a year or so). -

My Browser Builds (Part 5)
Mark-XP replied to roytam1's topic in Browsers working on Older NT-Family OSes
Many Thanks @roytam1 and @Mathwiz for your explanations. I didn't expect that a) Serpent diverges from Basilisk that strongly, and b) that changes are taken before they're released in Basilisk in their entirety. Aamof, there is a (leading) german news-site that regularly makes both, Basilisk and Spt_52.9 (, in Windows & linux) stop working; welt.de: the page renders completely normally, but if i open links under "SCHLAGZEILEN" (headlines) in a new tab, the browsers run hot and freeze. One has to kill the appication/process. -

Hello @roytam1, there was a "major development, bugfix, stability and security release" of Basilisk yesterday (see here) with a lot of changes and fixes. Just curious: none of them relevant/applicable for Spt_52.9, or did that update simply come some hours too late for your build? Thank you and have a nice sunday! -

Many thanks @VistaLover for your explanations, @basilisk-dev for resolving the glitch, and @roytam1 for not inheriting it (at the last moment) -

Hello @basilisk-dev, i report an issue here which i found in latest may-releases of 64-bit Basilisk, both Win (Archive) and Linux (x68): the (vertical) tabs on the tools -> preferences page aren't accessible any more! Your December-versions and roytam's mid-april Spt.52.9 versions do work well in this regard. Sorry for posting here: i was kicked out of Pale Moon forums and hadn't much desire since then to post there... Edit: to be more precise: if you close the preferences page and then re-open it, it opens on the priorly selected tab. -

Utilizing Spt & NM approximately 50% for (pre-)listening & collecting music, i do share your disappointment - but not the frustration: i stopped using YT completely (access only directly via youtube-dl), no more soundcloud, never a need for spotify at all, discogs only with noscript activated (works passibly): All albums & tracks i purchase at bandcamp (with nice pre-listening options), directly by the artists or (smaller) labels. By my guess, 99 % of the serious contemporary artists offer their work here (at least in my lucky case ). -

For i211 this one did work with XP/32 on my rig: https://www.techspot.com/drivers/driver/file/information/15828/ -
Sorry, it was already commented above...
