Pale Moon forum

You could try one of the methods listed here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Archive/Add-ons/Overlay_Extensions/XUL_School/Intercepting_Page_Loads In theory you intercept the loading, modify whatever data you need to change, then have the browser handle the modified data as it would norma...

Off-topic:
I have so much contempt for the level of misconception in your post right now.

He was complimenting you
Everyone starts off as a newbie at some point.

If you do not want to be spied upon, you can use Slimjet, which uses Chrome extensions and themes. If you do not want to be spied on, you are currently on the forum of the last independent browser that truly respects your privacy. Privacy and Chrome don't belong in the same sentence so forget about...

Btw, I know a Windows standalone app which is like EHTip (hover to translate).
If you are interested I will mention it here, otherwise I don't want to spam this thread?

So long as you're not linking directly to the binary, I don't see why not.

... You can still just extract PM from the tarball provided and set it up without a package manager. It will use its built in auto-updater. Yeah. I tried to do the same with TBird and the fact that Mint's Cinnamon desktop is scripted rather than compiled really became apparent. Cinnamon locked up a...

Okay. Well, I tried Fedora (Red Hat). It's the most click-happy OS I've seen. I browsed the whole thing. I couldn't find anything like Synaptic; I couldn't find a way to ditch Firefox and install PM. It's the Linux equivalent of WinVista. You can still just extract PM from the tarball provided and ...

Hey Matt, From some of the screen shots, I assume Interlink is your project (?) I really have only 2 requirements: 1, Maildir store, and 2, Ability to put sent mail & received mail in the same folder on a per-account basis -- I can do this in TBird, but it's clumsy. What say you? Not sure about mai...

Not just him, I've seen this as a general trend. Like we're supposed to be clairvoyant about the problem without any further info, as in the other thread about Youtube not working, where the guy said he was going to switch to Chrome after not providing troubleshooting information despite being remin...

So as I understand, there are 3 ways of making extensions - XUL/Overlay, Bootstrap and Jetpack. Jetpack is problematic and not recommended for new extensions, and while discussing with Tobin he said Bootstrap is also a bit flaky at times. That leaves us with the original overlay type. If I'm making ...

Suggestion: if you're so jaded that you can't manage a reply without a backhanded swipe, maybe don't answer.

And if you're so thin skinned you'll continue to take offense when none was intended, you should stay off the internet.

No one can help you unless you provide a link. Amazing that this needs to be told.

well, nothing worked, the problem is still there, and chrome still works fine with youtube in my computer. it's safe to say that chrome is better than palemoon when it comes to youtube, and my hardware is not the problem because if it were chrome should present the same glitches. You've been asked ...

It's a decades old bug from Firefox, don't know if applicable to Pale Moon, but Master Password+ can suppress additional dialogs, besides offering a few other security features.

I've had pretty good luck 'hobbling' websites/pages which take over and hold hostage local resources -- some to the point where I find it necessary to exit from the browser entirely -- by doing a 'Save As' a file to a local drive, using .html, mht, or maff. Then, reload the page as a 'file:///<save...

Is there any setting to stop this message appearing up so much?
I don't get it near as much in Firefox.

Maybe stop going to shitty websites that are too cheap to renew their SSL certificates? Or is it such a hassle to spend 2 seconds adding an exception?

Install Pale Moon Commander. It adds an 'Advanced preferences' to the Tools menu. When you click on that, it opens the Pale Moon Commander window. Click on Security -> General -> uncheck 'Allow Javascript to disable or change the right-click menu'.

You could install Classic Addons Archive and search for it there.
I use Google Keep Notes - it loads Keep in a sidebar so you can view all your notes, plus they're synced with your Google account unlike a standalone note extension that would be only within the browser.

Added by me obviously, else it would be broken everywhere.

Found out the problem. Wasn't about:config, but overzealous parameter blocking using Pure URL. Safe mode showed no problems, so I moved onto disabling extensions, I started with the likely ones that modify permissions/pages and after disabling Cookie Masters, this was the next one.

Did you test with all extensions disabled or not?
Because if not, testing with a vanilla profile doesn't narrow down whether a problem is related to extensions or browser settings.

Do you mean the usual safe mode, or actually disabling each and every one of them?
