Palemoon Atom/WinXP will not stream
Hi Guys,
I have Atom/WinXP V26.1 and whenever I try to view a tube file, it downloads instead of streaming/playing. It happens on all tube like sites. Is there a setting to change this so that I can view what I want or download? I checked this site for an answer, but didn't find any.
Don't know if this is a No-No but, I have another problem and don't want to waste a post. I was on Palemoon 24.9 or something and upgraded to Atom/WinXp 26.1. When I try to choose some of the add-ons, they give an error stating that it's not available for for 24.9.

You seem to have issues with file associations probably by some malware. Send me a pm with your teamviewer account to try to fix it remotely. Also check combofix, rkill, logonfix, adwcleaner or ask for help on http://www.bleepingcomputer.com Check the 4th tab at Palemoon -> Tools -> Options -> Applications.

It should be possible to help this user without asking for remote access to their system by a stranger.
Bleepingcomputer likely won't be much help here either; please focus on the problem at hand and try to help the user by way of the forum.

And if you do manage to get remote access to this user's computer and screw it up.. They are gonna blame the forum, the community, and US for it as extrapolating that we all are out to co-op people to use our products and are not on the level. You may help others by instruction which is the best way to benefit everyone as instruction becomes public record and someone else with the same problem can happen upon this thread and have what they need at their fingertips.
I know it may seem easier to just do it for someone else or have it done by someone else but that doesn't help anyone learn anything. Regardless and for the future please do not offer remote connection services or advertising of a service on this forum. Also, please tone down your personal views on the world as they have or at least are quickly approaching a borderline that could be considered hostile.
Also, please stay on topic.

Remote access shouldn't be the first option to think about.
Also, yes, I am as much a stranger as you would be, and I don't offer to poke in someone else's private computer system either unless they ask for it or unless I know them well/they are a friend.
All your other statements are irrelevant to this issue or to the solution. if you want to talk about politics you should probably use other channels/fora.

Re: Palemoon Atom/WinXP will not stream
Wow, all this took place fast. I didn't feel comfortable with someone (a stranger) having access to my PC. So, I waited to see what someone esle had to say. I uninstalled Palemoon and deleted all entries in the registry, and then re-installed the latest Atom/Winxp 26.2.2. When I try to add specific addons ( Adblock Plus), I cannot install because the version is being read as 24.9 That was the version I installed when I wipe my PC on Monday. I upgraded and found that some addon had been removed because of the version issue. Any ideas on to fix this verion problem? My original problem has been fixed by updating the Vlc player w/plugins. I could not stream, only downloade tube movies.Then I changed the way that certain file extension were handled. Also. thanks to all for their help and input. I' will monitor this post and respond as quickly as I can.

There's a Pale Moon-compatible fork of ABP: Adblock Latitude.exit370 wrote: When I try to add specific addons ( Adblock Plus), I cannot install ...
Its page is here: https://addons.palemoon.org/extensions/privacy-and-security/adblock-latitude/.
As for any other add-ons that were "removed because of the version issue," it would help to know which ones they were.
Re: Palemoon Atom/WinXP will not stream
My Apologies if my admonishment went a little too far.
Guess I'm just a little soft for Pale Moon and it's folks who make it their labor of love.
