Thanks smallhagrid, I always liked that XP sound. It's too bad it only plays once and never again. If someone had bought a used computer with no speakers and installed WinXP ... they would never hear that music, even if they added speakers later on. They would have no idea that music was on their computer. Probably many people that have moved on from WinXP really never heard that

I always liked the beautiful music that plays when you start Windows XP for the very first time. It only plays that one time. I tried to find it on the computer, eventually did a search where to find it and made copies. I don't think MS ever did that for another new OS ... but I can't be 100% sure. You have to play that XP start-up sound through headphones. Always wondered what the r

OK, thanks for the Psiphon information. I think I have it set up correctly but not 100% sure. I am interested in having more security at 'public' WiFi spots. I see that Opera has a built in free VPN but that was added after they dropped Windows XP support, from what I can figure out. I found a few other browsers that have a VPN added but they seem to be for Windows 10, nothing for Wi
