The Classic Browser uses the Chromium renderer to give you a faster, safer web browser by using its own interface and number-crunching routines.

The interface is certainly classic almost giving you an AOL or Netscape, old-school feel. The buttons have a dated fell to them, and a more minimalist approach would be better here. Three of the seven buttons I had to mouse-over to see what they were. That's OK, though, as mentioned this is using Chromium only for rendering, so things are supposed to look different. You can choose your theme, but they aren't themes as much as just different colors.

Changelog

    You can now enable/disable the Windows HOSTS file on the fly to test websites, when you R-click on an empty area and then... Script Macro Menu > Reload this page... > Toggle HOSTS file.
    In this release we have an alternative Mouse Left-click event handler for use with websites where the normal left-click is no longer working as expected, under "Alternative Click Handler" in the browser options.
    Use this for overzealous websites like Aljazeera, Reddit, and others whereby links/buttons are not clicking as expected.
    New page scraper "Extract Headings" returns a table of all article headings on the main page. Find out how compatible a website is with RSS/Atom feed generators, news aggregators, and other automated article services.
    In the Browser Options you’ll now find a new button at the very top called “Query”. Use this function to query the status of any given domain or URL you paste to it.
    With all the domain management tools we have at our disposal in the browser options, it can get pretty confusing figuring out under which tools any given domain may have been restricted or favored.
    This is where this little function comes in, to give you a complete picture of a domain's status as per our settings.
    Bug in "Extract Scripts" that would sometimes cause a unexpected download now suppressed and the utility much improved! Extract Elements has also been improved as well as Extract Images.
    You'll find a new embedded Classic App called "Personal Text Translator" which is self explanatory. Most online translation tools are for what you read but this one is for what you write.
    NB: This is the only embedded demo app that is sitting on the home site’s server because the translation service wouldn't work from a local file, but you can still get its source code from the browser's scraping.
    The DOM Node Tree generating utility has undergone a major optimization. It’s still slow with huge websites like YouTube pages where as many as 15,000 nodes may exist, but I’m working on it!
    Existing users may want to go to the Browser Options > “Online services associations” and change the 4th item to “Google Docs”, since Microsoft no longer offers their office document viewing service unless you create an account.
    Over 40 new nasty domains blocked in this version of our Windows HOSTS file so be sure to update. Also don't forget to... Main Menu > Browser Functions > Browser Options > UPDATE.
    NB: We have added "www.google.com" in the Storage Access Policy exclusion list; meaning that they’re not allowed to create cookies anymore, due to the fact that Google Maps started prompting for consent and such... yeah right!
    With this restriction it seems to work well so far, including Google Search and YouTube but I have no idea if there are any ramifications on other Google-owned websites.
    The browser can now be minimized down to 350x400 pixels for testing the rendering of websites in any resolution. It looks stupid like a little mobile phone!
    Tons of other undocumented things including a splash screen! Write to me about all the things you hate... and all the things you want.

BrowserSelector allows you to assign a browser for the opening of specific links dynamically.

Instead of choosing one specific browser to open links, etc., which in itself is simple to do. But what happens when you prefer Firefox for this and Chrome for that? Then changing up is time-consuming. With BrowserSelector, you can choose your preferred browser for certain things eliminating unnecessary steps like opening a new browser and then copying/pasting a link there, for instance.

Mypal is based on Pale Moon code and is designed to be a secure and reliable Windows XP (including newer Windows versions) web browser.

The goal of Mypal is to provide a current, secure, and reliable web browser for Windows XP. Mypal operates identically to Pale Moon with some minor exceptions. Mypal also allows Pale Moon search synchronization, bookmarks as well as other services (requires Pale Moon account). It does provide quick links over to the Pale Moon website, changelog, etc. Mypal uses DudkDuckGo for search.

Mypal will be comfortable in the hands of Pale Moon users, but the clean and straightforward interface will be equally simple-to-use for users trying out Mypal for the first time. The main idea behind this browser was to provide XP users with a secure option for web browsing afforded to other Windows users.

    First an emergency notice:

    Just a few hours after uploading v6.8, YouTube threw a massive spanner in the works by making changes to their website yet again, and thus making YouTube inaccessible to us!
    However, I had the problem sorted within a couple of hours but it meant re-compiling the executable files and uploading the archives again... twice in one day!
    Also, many Browser Option lists have been updated for this fix to work, so be sure to go to Browser Options and immediately click [UPDATE] at the very top, or YouTube won’t work!
    NB: YouTube will NOT work under v6.7 even with the updated Browser Options, so you really have to get v6.8.
    If for some reason your YouTube isn't working despite following instructions... check the browser's compile date under "About"... it should be "04-01-2021" (yes, April fool's day) or you'll have to DL again!
    Btw, the downside now is that user comments under each video probably won't show anymore because we also had to completely block YouTube cookies for this fix! Sorry, but we can't have everything in life!
    Onto what's new in v6.8 now...
    All Google Ads in all meta-search engines are now auto-removed with the latest version of the script macro "Manage Iframes v3.0", so be sure to update yours.
    Work has been carried out on "Multi-Search", both cosmetic and three lame meta-search engines have been replaced with Metager, Lycos and Fireball.
    Under "Main Menu > Developer Tools" you'll now find two powerful generators. They are... "RSS Feed Generator" and "HTML Menu Generator".
    One click is all it takes to generate an RSS Feed, or a fast and efficient HTML Menu of pretty much any website... even YouTube video channels.
    For technical info read the dedicated section on the generators below.
    The browser's RSS Feed viewer has undergone some improvements.
    The page scraper "Extract Headings" has been taken to the next level.
    A user asked how they can download HTML5 videos so we created this macro you may be interested in... "MEDIA - Scrape HTML videos from this page"
    Existing users can get this macro under... https://theclassictools.com/AutomatedMacros.htm
    A bunch of undisclosed improvements have also made it into this version.
