UPDATED ON: 2025-03-31 Friday has been landed. We are on the edge. The bridge day. The transformation into a blobby-hill-slacker in horizontal reclining posture has begun. I am mentally exhausted from work, self-study and my environment and would like to do something that I am not tired of. Luckily it’s been a while since I’ve posted anything Windows 7-related on these pages. So it is a perfect time to do materialize such desires.

UPDATED ON: 2024-11-14 I just realized that there is no security tests in browser area, only performance related benchmarks. Today we shall fix that small gap with the help of [BrowserAudit] service. ► BROWSER SCORES BROWSER OK+ WARN! CRIT! SKIP- R3dFox 132 286 145 0 0 Firefox ESR 115.17 289 142 0 0 Supermium 124* 289 142 0 0 Palemon 33.4 302 129 0 0 Seamonkey 2.53.19 295 136 0 0 Mull 132** 359 32 0 40 IceRaven 132** 363 28 0 40 *Supermium v126 is not tested due its instability and slow GUI interactions **Android-based browsers

It has been a while since i posted web performance comparisons. So here it is in all it’s useless glory. Performance was measured by [JetStream] benchmark. Two machines were tested: low-end office computer and powerful workstation. ► Intel i3-3220/16Gb/IntelHD + Firefox 115.17 ESR RedFox 132 Chrome 109 Supermium 126 Score 54.896 65.033 80.217 90.038 Stdlib 0.566 0.638 0.920 0.777 MainRun 0.190 0.224 0.309 0.339 First 53.755 65.282 53.610 72.162 Worst 54.

As you may know modern WEB is more and more dependent on JavaScript technology, that is why JS performance is essential for modern browsers. I have decided to throw the most important and interesting browsers into the pit, to find out in fare fight, who is stronger in above mentioned domain. Things go fast these days, especially in the technology field. Not so long ago, the [Octane] speed test, considered as a standard in this field, counts as outdated.

Scavenging github for required information i’ve stumbled upon shocking screenshot, [showing the most recent chrome 121] executed on good ol’ Windows XP. HOW COOL IS THAT? SOME TOPIC RELATED LINKS: [Supermium] by win32ss [Chrome Crack] by Blaukovitch Taking into account such news we can consider that Windows 7 is in even safer position in terms of future web browsing ability. spacedrone808 @Adobe spacedrone808 @Freepik

UPDATED ON: 2024-09-05 I’m currently on Firefox 115 ESR and not using chrome at all, but this is neat news for sure. So, in addition to [Supermium] chrome fork, we have official version also. This is a work of Russian hackers. Preface words from original Github page [English spelling is original]: Dirty corporations and Hindu-managers are trying to deprive the any users of all the benefits that were created by technically more advanced people than them.

UPDATED ON: 2023-08-01 Chromium v117 [already ported] to Windows 7 Although I’m completely uninterested in google browser and it’s siblings you have to know that there is a way to run current chromium version in Windows 7 environment, despite of all [mumblings] that 109 is the very last version to run on Windows 7. Backported version of chromium 112 called [CatsXP] available at your disposal. Also, there are [other solutions] on how to run version 110 and most recent 109 build intended for Windows Server 2012.
