No hybrid or even any 'hidden' GPU component, Mini-ITX, Xeon E3 with no GPU, HD 7850.

Spybot 1.6.2 is one of the few useful antispyware programs that still works on older Windows OS's (as far back as 98/ME/W2K?). Version 2 is somewhat odd, in comparison, either should still be fine for inoculating a PC against a range of nasties (passive blocks). Update frequency should be improving ...

It should not affect the HD7800 series yet it affects my HD7850, last tested a few weeks ago with IE11.

... and pale moon now has a stupid system which wont let you watch the video unless its the latest version of skype. Could you expand on this, add a link, details, please? Have you tried resetting Pale Moon to defaults (Help > Troubleshooting information > Reset Pale Moon button) and doing a full u...

Welcome cdoublejj! My guess is that you're referring to the 'damage' done by KB2670838, if so, I have a HD7850 and it affects me (if I try to run with IE updated to 10 or 11). A little light reading here: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=812695 ;) Many other discussion sites will have to...

Welcome, marmot and Happy New Year.

I'm on W7x64, Pale Moon x64 v24.2.2, Flash 11.9.900.170 (no Java installed). Works fine for me.

Any further clues, error messages?

Happy Christmas, everyone!

In Pale Moon's Status bar options > Download tab > check 'Use classic download window' (not sure what that equates to in about: config, it might be hardwired).

Corrine's blog page (linked earlier) contains links to the full, clean versions of Flash "It is recommended that you either use the auto-update mechanism within the product when prompted, or my preference, the direct download links " <- minimises the risks of unwanted extras. If you're worried about...

Here we go again, already - it's Security Update time for Adobe's Flash, Shockwave and Air. As per usual, to steer clear of unwanted additions and for further details, etc., I advise checking out Corrine's blog and using the direct links available from there: http://securitygarden.blogspot.co.uk/201...

Hi Libra,

Using Pale Moon Commander: http://www.palemoon.org/commander.shtml (Tools > Advanced options > Security tab > Privacy) you can check that it is set so that caching data to disk doesn't occur, even if the site allows it (most don't anyway).

Hmm, only 2GB RAM, the 60GB drive is likely to be slower than the 150 and is close to full anyway; I think I'd try 1-2GB variable on C: and 512MB fixed on D: (total = 1.5GB Allocated) to begin with, keep a close eye on it during the first week or so.

It would help if you posted your hardware details and your PC usage/style. With multiple drives, tweaking settings for the page file can give performance improvements - Windows (Vista and later, at least) will use the fastest or least active drive, each time it needs to read/write from/to the page f...

Hi and welcome, CW

Most often these settings are individual to the software (Flash/HTML5/Silverlight/ ...) and/or the site visited, the data is frequently stored in cookies, so if you regularly delete cookies, then you return to default settings.

I've no experience of the recent HD3000 but "GPU Accelerated Windows 1/1 Direct3D 10" looks like hardware acceleration should be available.

As Moonchild, no IPv6 here to test with (I don't trust it yet).

Try using Task Manager or Resource Manager to pinpoint the process with the high disk activity.

It's that time of day/month/year again, Flash 11.9.900.152 is out, along with AIR 3.9.0.1210 (just in case someone actually needs/uses AIR); as usual, Corrine's blog is the go to site for clean links (no crapware/toolbars to uncheck/uninstall) and further details: http://securitygarden.blogspot.co.u...

This is something I used to see - sorry but I really don't recall when it was 'fixed' for me, maybe after messing with ClearType, perhaps after removing the Devil's Update (the prerequisite KB for IE9 on W7), after setting ICC profiles, there were also some Windows Update font patches that could hav...

Using a good hosts file will negate the need for the majority of in-browser cookie-blocking, etc., as well as protecting from a huge range of known-bad (malware hosts, drive-by) sites - for the whole System, not just one browser. Side-effects, probably faster browsing and less unnecessary web traffic.
