I have version 24.7.2 on a netbook running XP SP3 and I have been meaning to update. I don't see an update option in the browser. So I'm wondering if I can download the Atom build and over write the existing install?

Not a problem. I've done it from 24.7.1 Portable x86 (32-bit) directly to 25.5.0 Portable Atom/WinXP (32-bit). Should work the same for standard (non-portable) installations.

The downloaded file: palemoon-25.5.0.Atom.WinXP.zip doesn't match the SHA-1 hash. The hash I get is: ce3e724f1ec29003ebe7b945487ba37f4ed858c3 I'm using the program HashCalc.

ce3e724f1ec29003ebe7b945487ba37f4ed858c3 is the correct hash -- it's listed incorrectly on the website.

I wonder why I keep having to double-check and correct these hashes; I'm pretty sure I get all of them when I update for a new release :/

Okay, thanks. I just didn't want to use something that could have been tampered with of course. When I see there is a file hash for something I download I check it. No idea how to check a PGP hash though. :lol:
