[SOLVED] A question about security

Assuming one is using the latest version of each, is there any significant difference among the PM release, PM unstable, and Basilisk in regard to security when it comes to online financial transactions such as banking and purchasing things? If you had to choose one of the three for these activities...

Re: Problem with text buttons installed by extensions and Flexible Space

After today's (06 July 2018) update to the unstable release, I re-installed the three buttons that were produced by the Toolbar Buttons extension (v 1.1.1) from this site, which indicates they work in Pale Moon. https://codefisher.org/toolbar_button/toolbar_button_maker/ I'm happy to report that the...

Re: Problem with text buttons installed by extensions and Flexible Space

It turns out that this problem occurs because of a fault in the button positioning code that I wrote to support sdk-based add-ons in Pale Moon. I'll deal with it. Thanks for your reply. It was I who filed the bug, so I've been following the GitHub messages. I think it's great that you all have jump...

Re: Problem with text buttons installed by extensions and Flexible Space

First the bad news: The problem still exists in today's update: 28.0.0b2 (unstable/portable -2018-07-01). Now the good news: One of the devs, who wrote she or he knows the cause of the bug, has just contacted me (via GitHub) and will look at it. My most sincere thanks to this person ("janekptacijara...

Third-Party theme (RedCats Green Flavor v 6.0.0) now incompatible

With today's (actually tomorrow's) update of unstable PM, Version: 28.0.0b2 (64-bit)(2018-07-01), the third-party theme I've been using since I started testing the unstable builds suddenly became "incompatible". It's "Red Cats Green Flavor" version 6.0.0. Happily, I was able to get it to work perfec...

Re: Problem with text buttons installed by extensions and Flexible Space

AFAIK: This is an extension issue. customize_titlebar_v2 ? Thank you for your reply. 1. I've now removed (not disabled) the extension you mentioned, but the problem still exists. 2. As I wrote in my original post, the problem doesn't exist in "normal" PM, only the unstable version. 3. A bit more ex...

Problem with text buttons installed by extensions and Flexible Space

From the outset, I'd like to state that I'm not posting this to "complain" in any sense. I'm simply seeking to bring the "problem" to the attention of anyone out there who might be interested. I do NOT expect a "fix", nor am I requesting one. The reason I'm even mentioning it is because the issue do...

Re: Flash plugin doesn't work

However, you still have not fixed the issue on your page and the flash object is still loaded from http, which forces visitors to make dangerous security exceptions. Thank you for your observation.

DO NOT do this. It will disable mixed-mode script blocking on all websites which is a massive security hole.
Thanks. I wasn't planning to do it anyway.

I know Flash is a red flag for lots of people, but I just want to mention that using 28.0.0a2, I'm not able to get the plugin to work on this page from my own website. https://www.edu-net.net/media/balcony/ I can't even get it to work with a brand-new profile.

Re: PM / Basilisk — Multi-core/multithreading?

Really, you should only compare with identical hardware/OS, clean profiles, all set up in exactly the same way, for the best comparison. OK, thanks.

So if I have this right, UBlock Origin 1.16.6 uses Webextensions and works with Basilisk, but NoScript 10.1.8.1 doesn't. Actually, I was the person who wrote that sentence, not LAR Grizzly.
