Re: Pale Moon SSE
ABL 3.0.* uses "delayed-load" to prevent browser startup delays so it's by design in that version. I believe 3.5 doesn't suffer from these delays with it being an overlay extension, and as such loads synchronously on browser startup. Tobin can no doubt explain better.

Unfortunately I can't answer this, as I don't use ABL.Lorien wrote:Is it due to poor compability with SSE specifics that Adblock Latitude continues to load for some time after the browser and other add-ons already loaded, or is it a feature of itself (I have 7 MB filter list)?
Re: Pale Moon SSE
What do you use then? Is it more performance friendly?
Also, no delay problem with ABL 3.5 indeed.

I cannot start browsing until it fully loads anyway, for both security and performance reasons.
Or was it solely for the abstract scores in browser tests?
Re: Pale Moon SSE
Thanks Mercury & PM team, great job as always!

If you want more performance friendly approach you could try using your altered HOSTS file and block ads and malware domains system-wide.Lorien wrote:What do you use then? Is it more performance friendly?

Re: Pale Moon SSE
DO NOT DO THIS.. Abusing HOSTS will actually slow things down and can additionally confuse dns aware applications.
Re: Pale Moon SSE
Sorry, Tobin, but I'm afraid I'm already doing this for many years now
Moreover, I'm using HOSTS file, merged by me from several ones with HostsXpert tool.
Also, could you please elaborate on my comment from Mon Oct 03, 2016 1:50 am?
Alt+F4, thank you for the advice, I'd sonsider merging in yours too.

But, I must say, there are a few sites in such lists which are not really malicious, like www(dot)liveinternet(dot)ru, and it's sometimes hard to figure out whether they are down or blocked.
And could you guys please clarify if it's possible to block some of my local network IPs, including router's one, in HOSTS file?
I tried and it didn't work out for some reason.
P.S.
Alt+F4, if "someonewhocares" is your site, could you possibly remove the word "suck" from the headline, it's blocked in search results by my filters.

@Lorien
You're most welcome. I'm glad I could be of assistance. Just one thing, maybe it would be easier for you if you stopped merging the lists manually and just used one big unified list.

With all ads and malware blocking software come the false positives from time to time. That's why it's important to keep your lists up-to-date and tell the author about potential false positives so she/he could exclude them.
As far as I know - and I may be wrong - IPs cannot be blocked via HOSTS file. You can do it, though, with your firewall.

Re: Pale Moon SSE
Hi, first of all thanks for supporting ancient hardware
I have one request - can you provide also builds for linux?
I have pentium III 1,13 ghz and lubuntu is working much smoother than xp. It's also still very well supported and safe. But there are no modern, actual browsers that will run on ubuntu/xubuntu/lubuntu without sse (except seamonkey).
I'll be very grateful, and I think not only me

Re: Pale Moon SSE
I think you mean "without sse2". I know it sounds picky, but it is a very important distinction. . According to https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.9. ... 64-Options Pentium 3 supports MMX and SSE instruction sets. If Mercury doesn't have linux build tools, I can try, assuming that Pale Moon will build for that environment. In that case we should probably start a separate "Pale Moon SSE for Linux" thread.Jaro89 wrote:Hi, first of all thanks for supporting ancient hardware

There's a right way
There's a wrong way
And then there's my way

I might be interested in this too, at some point.Walter Dnes wrote:[…] we should probably start a separate "Pale Moon SSE for Linux" thread.
Re: Pale Moon SSE
Yeah, of course I meant sse2, sorry, that was just typo
I will be really very grateful if that build will be made. I think every user that have linux and pentium III or athlon XP would be
Thanks for giving me hope, I was worried that I will have to use chrome 33 from middle of 2014 :/
Sorry for bad english

Re: Pale Moon SSE
Walter Dnes, if you want to make a new SSE build, then don't hesitate and just do it already, before the weekend's over.
Re: Pale Moon SSE
Unfortunately, that would involve time I don't have to dedicate to this project. I won't go into details, but I'm dealing with some personal stuff in life and PM builds are not a priority right now. I'll continue with v26 SSE Windows builds as long as they come out. I can't commit to anything else.Jaro89 wrote:I have one request - can you provide also builds for linux?

Re: Pale Moon SSE
I use noscript, which blocks a lot of ads. However, that's not its intended purpose - just a side-effect consequent to most ads nowadays being served through scripts - and I don't have a dedicated ad-blocker, so "nothing" would also be an acceptable answer.Lorien wrote:Mercury, so what do you use with your PM SSE instead of ABL, and why?
