  1. The only volume control with this configuration is by using WAVEOUT.EXE, which should be in your Windows folder. The normal Windows mixer facilities are not available.
  2. Thread cleaned, again. If it becomes an unpleasant personal discussion again, it will be closed.
  3. I don't have the power to remove this spam content, which has probably been there for a long time unnoticed. https://msfn.org/windows-10-update-will-intentionally-break-some-bluetooth-connections/ Hopefully @xper or @Tripredacus will be able to do it.
  4. If it's a private upload on a hosting site such as Mega or Dropbox it's probably OK. However if it's on a download site that contains warez it certainly isn't! PM me the link and I will check it out.
  5. Thread moved to the Web Browsers section.
  6. This is not a politics forum. Stay on topic please.
  7. Thanks for the analysis! What I'm seeing is this - If I click on 'Go to the Home page' the page loads for an instant, and then goes back to the same error message. Other parts of the site, such as the pages for booking tickets, still seem to work. The problem with https://www.lner.co.uk/ is different, it's just not formatted properly, but I think this was a different problem. If I go to the GWR site with Firefox 52.9, it does display, but completely mis-formatted too. I guess these are unresolvable problems which will start to affect more and more sites as time goes on. Whether it's due to the out of date Chromium version or JavaScript incompatibilities, it will only get worse.
  8. Another site no longer working. https://www.gwr.com/ Another UK railway company, like LNER, whose site also fails in 360Chrome. Is it the same problem?
  9. @WinWord2000 If you wish to abandon your account here that is your decision of course, but I don't see your problem with creating your own threads. As you did before elsewhere, if you want issues discussed relating to a different operating system than the one the original thread is targetting, just start a new thread in the appropriate section and tag those who you wish to involve from the original thread. I'm sure they will help you, if it's possible to do so, they just don't want the waters muddied in the original thread.
  10. Off-topic and argumentative posts removed. Back on-topic now please. This thread is for discussing Antivirus issues on Windows XP SP3 only.
  11. Yes, and they stopped me using the username I originally wanted to use too!
  12. It's relevant here at the moment IMO, as long as we don't have a long discussion about browser cache location options developing!
  13. Please be aware that mention or discussion of illegal activity is forbidden here.
  14. Yes, and I won't hesitate to do so again. We do not allow political debates, and certainly not slanging matches, in technical threads here.
  15. If you mean the current certificates, there's probably no harm in doing that, but you need to make it clear that they will need to be updated at some point, using one of the several mechanisms outlined here. I've always used heinoganda's updater, and it has never failed me, but I know some people have had trouble with it.
  16. Surely there's no point in integrating the actual root certificate updates in your project as they are still being regularly updated. Any you include will become outdated quite quickly. It would be much better to include just the actual updating mechanism, so the latest versions can always be retrieved.
  17. True there haven't been any actual program updates for 3.5.x for many years now, but Malwarebytes support would still help you if you had problems with it. I suspect it's that which will now end, if it hasn't already. That's a different issue to the ending of pattern updates for the program.
  18. Unless and until this actually happens, I'm not going to worry about it! Do bear in mind that dropping support for version 3.5.1 is not the same as withdrawing pattern updates sent to it. All that means is that if there's a problem, Malwarebytes will no longer help you to solve it. Again, I see no reason to drop pattern updates as long as the pattern file format is compatible with the program.
  19. I think those of us using Malwarebytes Premium 3.5.1 on XP (the late great dencorso was also a fan BTW) have always assumed, perhaps naively, that Malwarebytes would not pull the pattern updates for the program without some notice being given. Unless and until they perhaps change the format of the pattern updates to a format that 3.5.1 does not understand, I can't see any reason why they would do it. If the format does change, I can see that they wouldn't want to carry on producing the old format as well just to keep compatibility with 3.5.1, but you never know. This was posted less than a year ago, which looks hopeful in the short term, as does this. Don't worry, I'm under no illusion that pattern updates will remain forever, and I know they could be pulled at any time, I just hope there is some notice given.
  20. I've just checked the Malwarebytes installation on the XP side of my netbook, and there the component package is version 1.0.365! That was installed from exactly the same installation file, so I guess it's nothing to do with that. Looks like that installation must have updated itself at some point, and the other installation didn't for some reason.
  21. I re-downloaded the offline installer file from Malwarebytes, and the file I downloaded is identical to the one I've already got, which I downloaded in 2018, so it doesn't look as if the installer has been updated. Very strange, I wonder what the 'component package' actually is?
