Is it remembering your browsing history at all?

As the subject line. The flags seem to have been replaced with plain text. Is this a temporary glitch?

Sorry yes, I'm not using Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit, I'm using what is now called Malwarebytes 3. 3.5.1 is the last XP compatible version of that.

I would imagine that Windows Update will shut down, but Microsoft Update will stay online, as it supports other Microsoft products which are still within their support windows, like Office 2010. Of course they could just say that even though they're still in support, they are no longer supported on Windows XP, so they will close that too. The fact that they've made Office 2010 incompatible with XP with the latest updates to it would seem to make that likely I'm afraid!

Are they kernel updates? If so, they may need to be installed with the /overwriteoem switch on your system, using the downloaded installation files. They have to be on one of my systems or they keep coming back as they haven't actually installed properly. Not sure why they would have come back if you had them installed before though.

Version 3.5.1 still seems to be working fine here (touch wood!)

@heinoganda That's brilliant, looks like it's worked a treat, no more error messages!

KernelEx 2022 (Kex22) Test Versions (4.22.26.2)
Dave-H replied to jumper's topic in Windows 9x Member Projects
Thanks @jumper. I've added the extra lines to core.ini. Will it cause any problems if I don't delete the other entries? -
Is there any way of stopping MSE doing its own definition update checks? It's now writing loads of error messages into my Windows logs all the time.

KernelEx 2022 (Kex22) Test Versions (4.22.26.2)
Dave-H replied to jumper's topic in Windows 9x Member Projects
@jumper Just an addition to what I said yesterday, I did notice later in the day, quite a few days after I copied the 4.5.2016.20 kexbases.dll and core.ini files across, that Opera 12.02, although apparently working fine, was not showing all of its menus. This turned out to be because the KernelEx mode on opera.exe had for some reason reverted to "Base Enhancements (api fixes + extensions)". When I returned it to "Windows 2000 SP4" which is what it had been, everything came good again. I just thought I'd mention that in case anyone else hits the same problem. I'm not sure why the mode should have changed. -
My copy of Skype 7.36 has now (not unexpectedly) died. Strangely, it ran OK the last time, but would not connect to any of the contacts, if I tried to post a message it just said "not delivered yet" permanently. When I logged out it of course then said "update your operating system if you want to carry on using Skype", or words to that effect! Oh well, it was nice while it lasted.......... I'm using the web version of Skype now on Firefox 52.9.1 ESR when I'm in Windows XP using the UA string specified earlier in the thread via my UA string setting add-on. It does work, but it's extremely slow and unresponsive!

KernelEx 2022 (Kex22) Test Versions (4.22.26.2)
Dave-H replied to jumper's topic in Windows 9x Member Projects
Oops, yes of course! I did copy them both across. -
Pleased to say that I've had no apparent stability problems. The "HDA Sound" entry in the Multimedia control panel is still sometimes there and sometimes not there (I'm pretty sure that it is there actually, but appears as a blank unnamed entry) but as long as the sound is always actually working I don't think that's a problem. Thank you yet again for all your work on this, and I'm pleased to see that others are now experimenting with it too. Cheers, Dave.
-
Good to hear that you sorted it out!
-
My copy is still working at the moment, but from what you say, I suspect that its days (or perhaps hours) are numbered!
-
@Mathwiz @heinoganda Thank you!
-
Is that the case for all add-ons or just for some of them? Not all add-ons have a "Remove" button.
-
@heinoganda Just used the new updater for the first time, and thanks from me too! Just one thing puzzled me, on the English translation, one of the options to select is labelled "Raue", or possible "Rave", which presumably is still German. "Raue" seems to mean "rough", and "rave" means, well "rave"! What should it be?

KernelEx 2022 (Kex22) Test Versions (4.22.26.2)
Dave-H replied to jumper's topic in Windows 9x Member Projects
IIRC you have to install 4.5.2 as said, and then update it with the files in the 4.5.2016.18 package, which is the most recent that has all the necessary files in it. 4.5.2016.19 and 4.5.2016.20 just contain updates to some (but not all) of the dll files. 4.5.2016.20 just contains an updated kexbases.dll for instance. -
Have you "lost" any of your contacts on Skype 7? I noticed a week or so ago that one of my contacts had reverted to "Messaging disabled until request is accepted" and says that they haven't shared contact details with me. This is nonsense as I've been exchanging messages with them for months, and they still appear as an active contact on my Android phone app, and on my copies of Skype 8! Just today I've noticed that another of my contacts has dropped off Skype 7 in exactly the same way, so I'm wondering if they'll all now go one by one! If I message them from another Skype version the new messages still appear in Skype 7, but I can't reply there any more.
