It is random.org not .com Anyways, sites with Cloudflare DDOS protection have has a pre-loader message for a few years now. It is only recently that 1) random.org has had it (it appeared shortly after that large cookie notice that takes up the top 1/4 of the page) and 2) the Cloudflare message changed the text to checking if secure. It is also possible that websites that are using the Cloudflare service are not aware that some browsers can't pass this message. But I also wonder if these same browsers were able to pass the old pre-loader message that Cloudflare used to use.

Random.org does it.

I've been seeing the "Checking if site is secure" message on a few sites, I think it is not actually doing what it is saying. I haven't seen any that got stuck in a loop but I have seen 1 (somewhere) that never went past the message. It was a one-off site visit and I didn't care enough to get past the message. For me it happened with Palemoon 28 (Firefox 60).

This is not true across the board, but may well be true for versions available under Retail or Enterprise subscriptions. There exist versions that use online activation, the same as a Retail Windows OS.

Back when those OS were current, Flash wasn't the only game in town. IMO the best video quality of embedded media players was Quicktime and with RealPlayer often being the worst. Apparently there is a plug-in for Windows Media Player but for some reason I have no memories of that one. https://websitehelpers.com/video/formats.html

You would be best suited to search for such compatibilities online. It depends on the board and the NVME combination, whether or not Windows 7 will boot on it. You may need to install both the storage controller and disk driver to your boot and install images. Due to the various incompatibilities and not having time to figure out which NVMe/board options worked, I had decided to not use any NVMe for Win7 at all and only M.2 SATA SSD.

Drivers may be a problem, however it being UEFI isn't. Win7 will work fine on UEFI without any tricks. Unless you count imaging the disk as a trick. I haven't used Setup to install Win7 in years now I think.

Anyone can make the list themselves an PM me and I can edit the first post to put in that information.

It is done

We are looking into it. Do not create any additional posts using this new account you made.

This version of Palemoon has the same issues. Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:60.9) Gecko/20100101 Goanna/4.1 Firefox/60.9 PaleMoon/28.4.0

I wanted to report it works on Win7 32-bit.

The rationale for removing vanilla from the thread title was because Vanilla implies completely untouched and that such an OS is likely extremely rare. Modifying or adding things makes something no longer vanilla and it doesn't matter if it is a KernelEX or not.

If the external servers that the browsers send info to are known then the IPs or domains should be listed so that people can add them to any firewall or proxy they happen to have. As a small example, in my Dev environment, it is completely isolated however I have a set of 10 IP addresses outside of the DHCP scope that allow internet access, but the firewall is configured to block all access to Microsoft websites from those IPs. People can choose for themselves whether they want to use the browser or not, and how involved they want to be in using it.

It just redirects back to the web host.

I will try this weekend, but if it requires a restart, we may never know if it works.

No versions of Windows are abandonware.

That is likely because the majority of the Embedded software downloads were behind the ECE/SOC paywall for many years. It (ECE) is not around anymore, so I don't think there is any harm in pointing out that it once existed. (EDIT: the first link actually talks about it) Also wanted to point out there is something from 2009, an Update Rollup 1.0 with a p/n X13-82297. And before you ask, no I can't make it available.

No.

The only updates that really matter are those that deal with security certificates.

Over the past weekend, both my home computers (32bit and 64bit) have had their Chrome updated and now both have the nag message on them.

No. And do not attempt to delete your old posts. If it is found that you have deleted old posts, those posts will be restored to the best of our ability and you will be banned. It is very annoying for us to have to do this type of cleanup (we have done it before to those who decide to deface their posts on the forum) so we'd prefer that you do not attempt to do such a thing.

Yes there is an easy way but there is not reason to do it. Better would be to lock one or the other (or both)
