Quotendebord MXB, What? You got F-Prot to work again? How? <g> FP.BAT DATE 2-2-2008 C:\DOS\F-PROT\F-PROT %1 DATE <VBG> Provided useful info on the old worm I caught, although I manually found all the infected and generated files without it. (I hope)

Quotesnuz2 @MXB: another must for a W98 computer is Maximus Decims' native USB modification which gets rid of the need to install moronic files just to use Flash drives, and since so many devices like digital cameras and MP3 players, look just like a flash drive, they all work out of the box as well. Just make sure you really delete all the old driver software /before/ installing NUSB.

QuoteMXB Any way to get a fully functional NS for KM 1.5? Hmmm I just installed Policy Manager and it works better than expected so I guess it's OK. No docs but I guessed and right clicking on a page lets you access PM and it auto copy pastes the current URL in for you. Nice. Also nice was how it copied the NoScript settings (the few sites that were settable using the semi functional NS!).

I only needed Java for 1 site recently: Formula One Live Timing. It used to work with FireFox 1.5 (Opera's a mess - believe it or not Opera 10.5 which works with Win98 also doesn't let you use an external Java because it has one built in I think - details I kinda forget now) but stopped sometime last year. Now I'm tempted to try it with K-M.

QuoteFred Don't forget that K-Meleon 1.5 is a much newer browser than Firefox 1.5 or Internet Explorer 6, and it has much fewer safety problems. Firefox 1.5 is from 2005, and it can be compared to the mentioned K-Meleon-0.8.2+-Wechselbalg, which is dating from 2004. This version was, compared to FF 1.5, about 30% smaller. You could also consider my chromeless variation K-Meleon-NX1

Yes, it's overweight. I just checked the directory size of Opera 10, FireFox 1.5, IE 6 and K-M 1.5 and K-M was the fattest! All 4 have their caches cleared BTW. Opera I did delete the lexicon and indexer which will be recreated so I expect it will normally the biggest. But K-M is fatter than FF 1.5.

Quotesiria The alternative files that I want to keep a while (old versions, or original versions, macro experiments etc.) I just copy and rename, so that the ending is disabled. E.g. "toolbars.cfg" renamed to "toolbars_cfg_110525" or such. This way KM doesn't read them at startup and they can stay inside the same folder, side by side with the "active" files

QuoteYogi QuoteMXB Thought it didn't work at first but it appears one must exit and reload K-M before any change takes effect. I'll try and remember that in future. Toggling Proxy on/off doesn't need to exit and reload K-M. Changes take effect as soon as you hit the toggling button. At least that's how it works with 1.5.4 here.
