He's just saying Windows ME is better than XP I think. :laugh:

How can ANYONE CLAIM an obsolete Operating System that 1000's of users had problems with eg - BSOD error's think that this is better than XP ?? - I can tell you since changing over to XP I have far few BSOD's than I ever had with WinME. Windows Me is obsolete technologies and has been replaced with a superior product :p WinMe is not as half advanced as the Windows XP technologies are. Claiming its better is just plain stupid ! :huh: (no flaming intended - I respect your feelings) but I do work with PC's for a living, and I know MOST customers don't like Windows Me ;)

On Apache-User's program:

It would be impossible to do a pop-up blocker or download manager. Why? Apache-User created it with a toolkit called BrowserBob, which doesn't have those features.

I'm working on my own version with some more functionality. Right now, just enjoy Apache-User's IE replacement, it's OK. :)

Edit: Added screenshot of my IE replacement. It is still a total work-in-progress, you don't know how dysfunctional it is until you have used it. However, I am trying to make it aesthetically equivalent, and it already has a lot of work put into it.

what language are u using to code ? are u planning to make it a open source project ?

See my above post. It was created with a custom-browser toolkit called BrowserBob. If you download the trial you should be able to open the config.bob file in the IE replacement folder and edit it.

I've been working on my own version of the 4051 IE, which all of the images and functions are ripped directly out of the 4051 build... it's an early beta (I dont have the menu's or toolbar buttons finished yet except for refresh) but I thought I'd release it and get some people to beta test it for me and find problems and/or see what they think and like or dislike about it. Here is a screenshot:

    • Microsoft unveils new Surface Laptop with improved trackpad, Snapdragon X2, and more

      By Talys · Posted

      I am not a fan of haptic feedback touchpads. I've owned a Surface Laptop 7 (Snapdragon) with one and a Lenovo Slim (Intel), and I hated both to the point where I purchased different laptops. It's not that they don't work most of the time; it's that they don't work 100% of the time, and there is no advantage from a user's perspective over a good mechanical trackpad like what's on a ThinkPad X1 or a Yoga 9i. I do not believe that I'll buy another haptic feedback touchpad laptop again in the near future.

      Works fine here too. About this build, I don't like to download any kind of Windows, from any site except Microsoft. The mod might work, but I don't know what it's inside. Can contain malware, backdoors... Long time ago I've used something like this but reversed - it was 98se with the look and some functionality  of XP. Or, later XP with Vista look. But I made it myself. Not downloaded from obscure sites.

    • Rockstar gives last-gen GTA V players free upgrades tomorrow

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Rockstar gives last-gen GTA V players free upgrades tomorrow by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Rockstar is preparing to launch Grand Theft Auto VI later this year, but ahead of that, the company has revealed a new offer for some Grand Theft Auto V owners. It today announced that Xbox One and PlayStation 4 version owners of the 2013-released title will soon be receiving a free upgrade to the current generation version. The studio released the Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5 version of Grand Theft Auto V back in 2022, bringing significant upgrades to the original console editions. This included 60 FPS gameplay at up to 4K resolution, as well as major upgrades to textures, draw distance, and audio. Faster load times, ray tracing elements, and HDR support were also added with it. While this new and enhanced version needed a new purchase of the game to jump in, now Rockstar has decided to make it a free upgrade, dropping the $40 price tag entirely on consoles. "Beginning tomorrow, those who own any PS4 version or the digital Xbox One version of Grand Theft Auto V will be able to upgrade to the PS5 or Xbox Series X|S versions at no additional cost, and experience the best versions of GTA V and GTA Online," said the company in an official blog post. The free upgrade offer will be released tomorrow, June 18, for all Xbox One and PlayStation 4 owners of Grand Theft Auto V. Players who will be jumping in on the offer will want to check how to migrate their GTA Online profile from last-generation to current-generation consoles by heading over here. The offer lands ahead of The Kortz Center Heist hitting Grand Theft Auto Online, where players and crews will be tasked with stealing priceless international art from a prestigious gallery in Pacific Bluffs. It doesn't look like Rockstar plans to stop updating its previous game even with Grand Theft Auto VI being on the horizon. The latest title is slated to launch on November 19, 2026, across Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5.
