  1. The BNavigator Session store and Session startup declarations are: component {4e6c1112-57b6-44ba-adf9-99fb573b0a30} nsSessionStartup.js contract @binaryoutcast.com/navigator/sessionstartup;1 {4e6c1112-57b6-44ba-adf9-99fb573b0a30} category app-startup SessionStartup service,@binaryoutcast.com/navigator/sessionstartup;1 component {d37ccdf1-496f-4135-9575-037180af010d} nsSessionStore.js contract @binaryoutcast.com/navigator/sessionstore;1 {d37ccdf1-496f-4135-9575-037180af010d} I found that Iceape-UXP appears to have a similar declaration at: https://github.com/roytam1/iceape-uxp/blob/master/common/src/SuiteCommon.manifest#L23C1-L23C82 There, it has the following Session store and Session startup declarations (Iceape-UXP): component {4e6c1112-57b6-44ba-adf9-99fb573b0a30} nsSessionStartup.js contract @mozilla.org/suite/sessionstartup;1 {4e6c1112-57b6-44ba-adf9-99fb573b0a30} category app-startup SessionStartup service,@mozilla.org/suite/sessionstartup;1 component {d37ccdf1-496f-4135-9575-037180af010d} nsSessionStore.js contract @mozilla.org/suite/sessionstore;1 {d37ccdf1-496f-4135-9575-037180af010d} Forgive me for not fully understanding the code. Are the names really different? My impression is that paths are different, where BNavigator has "@binaryoutcast.com/navigator/" and Iceape-UXP has "@mozilla.org/suite/". How should I use this to allow the Session Manager extension to work as intended but for BNavigator?
  2. @roytam1, Do you know why the Session Manager extension does not work in BNavigator? I posted about the issue at: https://msfn.org/board/topic/185966-my-browser-builds-part-5/?do=findComment&comment=1261059
  3. Yes, that the tabs are hidden is what I was showing to be the problem. It appears that the tabs have been truncated at the top, at just under the header tabs of the "Attachments" main group. Normally in Thunderbird (and usually derivative clients), the header tabs content does not truncate. The "Outgoing" header tab can still be activated by clicking the "Attachments" group header, tapping the Tab key, and then using Ctrl+Tab to toggle the tabs.
  4. It is worth mentioning that in MailNews (and I would suspect Thunderbird, generally) does not show the Save Dialog box except for downloading of attachments or where the resource to download is navigated via the Start Page (Home Page) functionality. If one were to browse a webpage In MailNews and click a link to try to download something, the save prompt does not happen. Right-clicking on an item that and choosing to save a file, where available (like for pictures), can still be done. I would guess that uBlock Origin relies on the browser normal process of presenting the dialog box, which is something that in MailNews is not provided or provided by default. The legacy uBlock Origin extension, although it does support Thunderbird, seems lacking in many areas and some things are rather quirky. Perhaps at the uBlock Origin legacy extension's final point in its development, Thunderbird compatibility was not well adjusted in the extension. My impression is that the uBlock Orign legacy extension was first developed for Mozilla Web browsers, then (incompletely) adapted for the Thunderbird email client derivative(s). My opinion is that it is still better to use the uBlock Origin extension with MailNews than to not.
  5. It would be good if access to Internet to the antivirus/antimalware can be blocked. The definitions to many of the programs may be updated manually, via a mirror functionality, or automated via a different (than the antivirus/antimalware software) means. This might be enough safeguard against at least some (many?) of the software antivirus/antimalware programs. I am uncertain how easy it is to disable many of the antivirus/antimalware applications. I would think that, in addition to using a Firewall to block antivirus/antimalware application access to Internet, one would also have to prevent the installation of the software's network filter drivers from installing, which might cripple, somewhat, the functionality of the software. Anyone else ever try to do such a thing?
  6. I adjusted the report. I had only included the common items modified. Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security 3.3.0.87 modifies much more on Windows XP Professional with Service Pack 3. With regards to the official government warnings, depending on the governments, that in itself should not be enough cause of concern; governments are often not truthful in various reports nor are many of the major software vendors align with various government. Many of the security software vendors should not really be trusted, but some are still competent (some more than others) in finding and handling other threats.
  7. I tried Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security 3.1.0.461 and Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security 3.3.0.87 on Windows XP Professional with Service Pack 3. Both versions (version series) would replace or modify the following system files: wzcsvc.dll (Wireless Zero Configuration Service) shimgvw.dll (Windows Picture and Fax Viewer) Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security 3.1.0.461 also modifies: mfc42u.dll (MFCDLL Shared Library - Retail Version) Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security 3.3.0.87 also modifies: pdh.dll (Windows Performance Data Helper DLL) userenv.dll (Userenv) netapi32.dll (Net Win32 API DLL) secur32.dll (Security Support Provider Interface) user32.dll (Windows XP USER API Client DLL) mfc42.dll (MFCDLL Shared Library - Retail Version) usp10.dll (Uniscribe Unicode script processor) shlwapi.dll (Shell Light-weight Utility Library) ws2_32.dll (Windows Socket 2.0 32-Bit DLL) msasn1.dll (ASN.1 Runtime APIs) wintrust.dll (Microsoft Trust Verification APIs) mscms.dll (Microsoft Color Matching System DLL) olepro32.dll () fastprox.dll (WMI) odbc32.dll (Microsoft Data Access - ODBC Driver Manager) winmm.dll (MCI API DLL) atl.dll (ATL Module for Windows XP (Unicode)) wldap32.dll (Win32 LDAP API DLL) wmiprvse.exe (WMI) It is not clear why the products do so. After restoring the original files, the original files were again replaced with Kaspersky modified ones after a few reboots.
  8. @roytam1, I report some issues with BNavigator and extensions (my currently used build is 20240223 of version 0.9.8714a1 (32-bit)). Please advise: Session Manager 0.8.1.14 (by Michael Kraft) Session Manager 0.8.1.14 (by Michael Kraft) does not work on BNavigator, despite working fine on SeaMonkey 2.49.5 and Ice-ape-UXP 52.9.20231110 (32-bit). After installing Session Manager 0.8.1.14 on BNavigator 0.9.8714a1 (32-bit), the extension does not work and provides the error: The extension is described and offered for download at: https://addons.basilisk-browser.org/addon/session-manager/ AND https://addons.thunderbird.net/en-us/seamonkey/addon/session-manager/ . Direct Link to extension: https://addons.thunderbird.net/seamonkey/downloads/file/1016948/session_manager-0.8.1.14-sm.xpi My modified version of application Targets to allow installs: https://www.mediafire.com/file/72bsf9s3yg4vkah/session_manager-0.8.1.14-sm_MODDED_for_TARGETS_COMPAT.xpi/file The extension has a support thread (now Locked) at: http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=2308889 roytam1's Greasemonkey for Pale Moon 3.31.4 modified extension roytam1's Greasemonkey for Pale Moon 3.31.4 modified extension (for bugfixes and compatibility; which otherwise appears to work well on SeaMonkey and derivative browsers) has a toolbar icon that, when placed into the statusbar icon area, increases the enlarges the status bar's vertical height. The problem does not manifest with the browser's Bookmarks toolbar Icon nor from icons from other extensions like uBlock Origin 1.16.4.31 and User Agent Switcher 0.7.3.1-signed.1-signed. The original Greasemonkey for Pale Moon 3.31.4 extension, with only a Targets mod for installation compatibility, also manifests the problem. I have not tested the Greasemonkey for Pale Moon 3.31.4 in SeaMonkey or derivative browsers, other than BNavigator. The testing in those other browsers is not as straightforward but can be done; it would first require a method to get the icon onto the status bar (modifying the extension to specifically place it, using an extension that provides for adding of user chosen icon(s), etc.). Here are some before and after pictures of adding the Greasemonkey icon to the BNavigator statusbar to illustrate: The extension is described and offered for download at: https://msfn.org/board/topic/182647-my-browser-builds-part-3/page/102/#comment-1212513 AND https://o.rthost.win/boc-uxp/index.php?sort=date&order=desc .

  9. @roytam1, I report some BNavigator bugs (my currently used build is 20240223 of version 0.9.8714a1 (32-bit)): Bug 1: The "Open Web Location..." menu item is not shown in Bnavigator at all, but Open Web Location functionality still is accessible other than via menu item (use Ctrl+Shift+L keyboard shortcut to bring up dialog box). It is notable that the "Open Web Location..." menu item is present and can be accessed via in SeaMonkey and Iceape-UXP. In those browsers, the menu item is located in the first section of the "File" menu. Perhaps the menu item was removed (accidentally?) when removing menu items relating to the SeaMonkey suite that are not used by the Browser component (such as the items that relate to email client, Composer, Address Book, etc.). I have not tested whether the menu item can be unhidden via userChrome.css. I tried using userChrome.css to make the "Open Web Location..." menu item visible, but it failed. Perhaps the menu item is missing completely. Bug 2: The "Go" toolbar button, which is used to run the URL bar contents, is not shown at all, but the URL bar contents may still be run via keyboard shortcut (Only while having the URL bar already selected, the Enter keyboard shortcut may perform the run action). The "Go" button does not display at all. I have not tested whether the button can be unhidden via userChrome.css. I tried using userChrome.css to make the Go button visible, but it failed. Perhaps the Go button is missing completely. Bug 3: Set default browser does not work correctly or fully. When setting default browser (using the "--setDefaultBrowser" command line argument), a Desktop shortcut is created, but the browser is not configured to be the system default. Many of roytam1's browsers do not set default browser correctly and can make other changes (which I think happened when I last tested roytam1's K-Meleon browser). It would be good to have the default browser/application options working correctly for all major roytam1 releases. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Seem like Bugs but Not sure if Bugs; should bring to roytam1 attention: Seems Like Bug 1: The throbber icon is invisible. The icon still exists and can still be interacted with. I think that it would good to for the throbber icon to actually have something to visibly see. It would make accidentally clicking it more difficult, particularly, if one does not remember where it is placed.
  10. @roytam1: I am re-reporting (now with pictures) a MailNews problem that has not been resolved: The "Attachments" Preferences tab does not fully display the chrome://messenger/content/preferences/applications.xul contents. The top part of the content is cut off and "Incoming" and "Outgoing" tabs are hidden. To toggle the tabs, in the Content Type list, select the Action of the last list item (you might need to click multiple times for the selection to happen), then type Ctrl+Tab (there are other ways to go about it too). Here are some pictures for comparison: Picture of the MailNews Preferences window with the "Incoming" tab of the Attachments tab active: Picture of the MailNews Preferences window with the "Outgoing" tab of the Attachments tab active: Picture of the Icedove-UXP Options window with the "Incoming" tab of the Attachments tab active: Picture of the Icedove-UXP Options window with the "Outgoing" tab of the Attachments tab active: As an additional note, the Incoming tab of the Attachments tab of the Preferences dialog box for the MailNews application, does not display the correct "Desktop" icon for the "Save files to" option.
  11. After using some of the current releases of @roytam1's browsers (including Thunderbird derivative clients) I notice much improvement. After updating from the mailnews.win32-20240127-e95fad7d-uxp-35252384aa-xpmod.7z build of MailNews, the frequent but intermittent MailNews trouble with laggy or delayed displaying of email content appears resolved (a problem that has been manifesting for at least four months).
  12. Not true. The "Kingston DDR3 module (Made in Taiwan, the over-popular blue one - Hyper-X)" information did not come from any of FranceBB postings from this thread, rather it was your response where you described of one of your encounters in the past with "Kingston DDR3 module (Made in Taiwan, the over-popular blue one - Hyper-X)". In FranceBB's next report, he posted his RAM sticks were also "HyperX" (also, not the same spelling as the one you had indicated) and did not further identify them. "HyperX" modules, as it relates to Kingston products, is a line of products and branding, and not just for RAM modules. There has been no apparent definition of the "HyperX" branding being hyper by definition; rather, Kingston describes (at least) its HyperX products, as a matter of marketing, of performing in a manner that you might construe as hyper.
  13. @VistaLover, thank you for the disambiguation information of the New Moon and Serpent products. Presumably, the ""status-4-ever"" component you refer to, is the Moonchild's "Pale Moon status bar" extension (a fork of Sparky Bluefang's "Status-4-Evar" extension) that was bundled as an extension with Pale Moon through the end of the 26.* series. As of the 27 series, the extension was no longer included as such with Pale Moon, but instead was incorporated in a different manner. I checked roytam1's build offerings at https://o.rthost.win/palemoon/index.php?sort=date&order=desc , but did not find the New Moon 20220812 build that you mentioned that you believed was the last build that contained the fully working mentioned component. Please verify the build and report.
  14. @feodor2, I also would mention that after the full screen is performed for an HTML5 video and while in the resulting full-screen presentation, using the ["Exit Full Screen (Esc)"] button of the "[site name] is now full screen ['Exit Full Screen (Esc)' button]" prompt will crash the browser. The crash happens without presentation of a crash report dialog box. Browser: Mypal 68.13.9b Operating system Windows XP Professional with Service Pack 3
