Pale Moon Version 27.0.0 Released with Security Updates

[DR M]

DR M, you could perhaps put a skit together based on "What have the Romans ever done for us?", from the film whence my avatar was taken?

Sorry, I didn't get the meaning. What do you mean, Satrow?

Monty Python's film, Life of Brian.
For Dr M, here is the Youtube section from the film "What have the Romans ever done for us?"

Pale Moon Version 27.0.1 is a bugfix release for some of the issues that popped up with the new milestone. 

Release Notes

[darksurfer]

Too bad they couldn't fix all the now inoperable addons that can no longer be used.  :( >:( ??? ::)

This will be another Pale moon I will not and cannot use. I am still with 26.5.

Who is thinking about Firefox again, besides me? :'(

[plodr]

I have FF as a backup. I have to fire it up daily because v 26 of PM doesn't show the inbox of my gmx mail and since I get at least 1 newsletter a day to that address, I want to read it.

FF loads extremely slow compared to PM. That's why I won't be switching back to FF.

Before you change, try it and compare. I had both browsers load my start page and timed them some months back. FF is definitely slower than PM.

[Corrine]

plodr, do you have Pale Moon Options > Advanced set to Firefox Compatibility?  That could make the difference in seeing your gmx inbox.

[plodr]

Corrine, we have a 7 page thread going at the Palemoon forum outlining everything people have tried to get v 26 to see GMX. Nothing works. (GMX changed something because one day it worked, then it didn't. Even with PM 27, I get I must use a newer browser or get "limited" function).

https://forum.palemoon.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=12518

I went into about config and started comparing Palemoon and FF. I can't find a difference.

You'd think if PM was set to FF compatibility and FF can see the inbox messages, PM could see them too. Nope.

The only problem I've noticed with GMX and PM 27 is that I have to send using plain text (something I do anyway). Test with a PM 27 Portable, if that works, it's likely *something* in your PM 26 Profile that was carried over that was causing the problems.

[plodr]

I'm not running PM v 27 installed. I am using a portable version.
Nothing in my profile is "carried over" to the portable version.

I'm using the default theme and 3 addons: cookie culler, noscript and uBlockOrigin. I could disable the 3 addons and test to see if one of those is causing the problem. Truthfully, I prefer to keep the 3 addons and dump my gmx email account for something that works in my browser.

I get the "Your browser is not supported". Windows 7 64 bit Home premium.

I'm now testing a few other portable browsers: Opera, Iron browser and Cyberfox. I'm trying to find one that lets me get to all my email sites.

[plodr]

Since I can't edit the previous post, I'll add what I've discovered. It is noscript causing the issue.

I've been tweaking things until I finally got the inbox to show and not just a blank page. (Now to see if I can figure this out on the other computers!)

Palemoon 27.0.1 loads and works slowly on my old computer and Linux.

Had to go back to 26.5.0. Will have to wait until they iron out the Bugs.

There's an active Pale Moon for Linux section on the PM forum, you'd get more specific help there.

Thanks for the Link to the Linux forum.

Yes it appears to have been ad blocker ABL . I am using Ublock Origin now and things are back to normal.

Excellent news, a simple switch of extension certainly beats troubleshooting for days  8)
