My Browser Builds (Part 2)

I can only speak about my SSE-experiences with the installer. When you tried to use the installer without admin-privilegues you have two problems: 1. browser will not start-no access. 2. you must totally remove the browser-folders(those you wrongly installed) before restarting with admin-previlegues. reinstallation in admin-account will not help. will never do. installer must run in standard-account with admin-previlegues.  maybe right-clicking and "execute as" with the right PW would do. didnt yet test maybe someone can do.
 

I fixed this all a while back.

I ran the installer as admin. The problem was standard users could not use the program.

I fixed the script so that standard users can use the programs, now, among other things.

I disable UAC on my system for standard users so Run As Admin is blocked by Group Policy.

[3dreal]

Since you have your own workaround  my tips are still true for those not having done your steps.

btw: Execute as means Run as.
Update: My findings are still true for SSE.
AND: german language pack(de-de) not working anymore.

didnt update since some months. will check which version i had installed when it last worked.
Will discuss this issue later since i remember anybody else has the same problem.
had PM-crashes(again) when running in folder instead of installation. Thats what i always did at the very beginning with Newmoon/PM. no installer used.

nm27 next build will have fix applied.

Looking forward to it!

I much prefer nm27 over nm28 because it uses roughly 31 MB *less* of a memory footprint.

Is Microsoft download center not searchable anymore? I once asked a related question that the search box do not show completely, which is still the same; but now it seems I cannot search anything.

There are "shop" and "explore" category, but no "download center". Clicking the menu "All microsoft" -> "other" ->"free downloads & security" will bring you to a page for browsing, without search function.

It works but algorithm is crap. Try searching using only 'directx' keyword.

Is anyone able to load weather.cod.edu?

I haven't been able to do so for several days in New Moon or Serpent (cancels as soon as I enter it in), yet it still works in a chromium browser on my smartphone. Even setting a Chrome 80/Win10 user agent doesn't change anything.

The roytam 1 test Iceape-uxp is a hardened / crippled version of SeaMonkey sporting a modern and maintained UXP browser instead of SeaMonkeys default browser based on Firefox 52. Only very few add ons will work with iceape-uxp where those in the zip file below does for me:

standalone_seamonkey@iceweasel.xpi – Allows to use SeaMonkey as a standalone e-mail client by opening links from Mail & Newsgroups in a an external web browser instead of SeaMonkey.

seatab_x_2-0.3.3@iceweasel.xpi – Adds a close button to each browser and mail tab

nicereader-1.4@iceweasel.xpi – A web page text only text reader

uBlock0@raymondhill@iceweasel.xpi – Ublock ver. 1.16.4.17

InternetProtection@360safe@iceweasel.xpi – Adds an extra layer of protection if using 360 Total Security AV

password-backup-tool@iceweasel.xpi  – Export and import your saved passwords

Also included in the zip is a few search engines (google, duckduckgo etc) to be copied into the searchplugins folder

I tried to test your K-Meleon 1.5.4 build on Windows 95, but it does not launch. An error states that K-Meleon is linked to missing export ADVAPI32.DLL: CreatedRestrictedToken

Did you try launching the "k-meleonW9x.exe" version of the file? You then need to copy "MSVCP71.DLL", and "MSVCR71.DLL" into K-Meleon's root directory if you haven't already. An updated COMCTL32.DLL file is also needed, and is best obtained from installing IE 5.5. The way I chose to obtain MSVCP71.DLL and MSVCR71.DLL is to install the March 5th 2010 K-Meleon 1.5.4 version from the executable installer.

I can signin at Citibank but it then lands on the dashboard page but it is empty - can't do anything without the dashboard page loading.

But this is something that would require an actual Citibank account to be able to witness.
