Hello all!
Latest version - basilisk52-g4.8.win32-git-20230304 - does not work on https://virustotal.com
Previous version - basilisk52-g4.8.win32-git-20230211 - worked perfectly!
What could be the problem?
Thanks in advance.

Although Palefill 1.26 is installed in my Serpent 52, the interface of VirusTotal is blank after loading. As far as I can see, VirusTotal changed their font. It is now Google Sans. There doesn't seem to be a supported format for Serpent 52. Here is the output of my error console:

Serpent-52-Virus-Total.png

Maybe, our font experts do have an idea how to fix that. :dubbio:

By using dorando keyconfig, you can disable any shortcuts listed in its window. d010.gif I installed it again for testing purpose. Look at my screenshot:

Serpent-52-Disable-shortcut.png

The shortcut Ctrl-Shift-W has been disabled by me in Serpent 52. You can revert this by clicking the button Reset or manually at any time, of course. Hope it works for you. :)

You're welcome! Glad I could help you. :)

Additionally, there seems to be more problems in Serpent 52 when loading VirusTotal. Here is the output of my web console:

Serpent-52-Virus-Total-2.png

Anything which can be polyfilled?

For Virustotal you need to disable Web Components  `dom.webcomponents.enabled;false`

Older Useragents did not work for me.

You can always use the old browser interface : https://www.virustotal.com/old-browsers/

 

By the way I am using GitHub now without palefill and it works mostly fine (just missing a couple of features), however I think there are memory leak problems. I am not sure what can be done about it.

Thanks for the tip! Setting dom.webcomponents.enabled to false did the trick. Does setting this preference to false have a negative impact on other functions? :dubbio:

Rejoiced too soon! :whistle: The web interface is loading completely, but a file can't be uploaded and unfortunately, this setting leads to a 100% utilisation of my CPU, palemoon.exe needs round about 93%. :( Therefore, no solution for me, unfortunately. :no: Sorry to say that! I think another solution has to be found. BTW, same problem in New Moon 28. smilie_denk_24.gif

Edit: To be a bit more precise, setting dom.webcomponents.enabled to false in my testing profile of Serpent 52, the CPU load starts by 50%,. There, I was able to upload a file which leads to a 100% load on my CPU in the end. In New Moon 28, the VirusTotal interface starts with a 100% load on my CPU, and I was unable to upload my test file. :( And the Web Console is full of errors.

Therefore, I also reported this to the issues of martok's palefill on GitHub.

Sure It is the main new feature of latest UXP engine and this is in the beta of Pale Moon. See:  https://forum.palemoon.org/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=29528 for more details.

I would recommend keeping it enabled. before it was disabled by default because it was too much lacking in features and not working correctly.

For me disabling it worked, I am using IceApe-uxp, maybe it is different. I do have a powerful CPU though and even like that it is heavy.

Yep, I reverted the preference dom.webcomponents.enabled back to its default setting. Too much errors in my web console. An old, weak CPU also has advantages, though. The user notices immediately that something is getting out of hand. :thumbup

I'm sorry for dumb question, but can i change interface language of roytam1's Firefox 45ESR 45.9.34-20221210?

Here is a link with all official language packs for Firefox 45.9.0esrhttps://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/45.9.0esr/win32/xpi/ Maybe, they are still working or they have to be modified. I don't know that as I don't use this browser. :) For changing the language, you can use a language switcher extension, or you do it manually in the preference general.useragent.locale via about:config as usual.

I can confirm all the above with regards to (the modern GUI) VT site and latest St52 :(; loading below link:

https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/9cd8677d185d0b8a23fe3a47eaca17332dd84ab76d6402485ecda60490da8459?nocache=1

results in an "empty" tab:

... however, the console error I get is more ominous than an unsupported web font:

App did not load (Unsupported app)

As mentioned by others, temporarily disabling WC allows the site (new GUI) to load/display/basically work, but at a heavy CPU tax:

NB that in the above screenshot, ONLY the VT tab has been loaded, process "basilisk.exe" (not shown) is at a steady 51% CPU consumption here :angry: ...

That's why I already posted the output of my web console above additonally: 

I fear that this is much more difficult to fix, if at all. :( I also posted this to the issues of martok's palefill on GitHub as I already mentioned above. Here is the link: https://github.com/martok/palefill/issues/85#issue-1615306551 The web console also shows a JavaSript error in my screenshot. I wonder if this can be polyfilled somehow. :dubbio:
