Additional information: KernelEx has been completely redesigned and rewritten from scratch with low overhead and improved compatibility features being the most important goals. Large speed improvements should be visible especially in unicode support and version checking procedures. User has now the ability to completely disable KernelEx ...

It's not possible to install Adobe Reader 9.1 After setting compatibility mode to Win2000 SP4 the installation seems to start and then ends at 100% and the window closes but nothing seems to be installed, no "Adobe" folder in the "program files" directory, no nothing.... The registry solution didn't fix this either. Google Earth 5 won't install either. ...

Few minor issues encountered along the way: • The (fixed?) osdn mirror for the tar source package reports 'page not found'; may be a temporary glitch. Changing the path to point to switch instead of osdn fixes the issue. • May be a good idea to mention ' src ' or ' source ' in archive's name; initially I thought it's just the usual non-installer ...

And it seems to be working well here as I never experienced the error reported by RetroOS. Btw I don't need to uncheck the "use new plugin" in the Java control panel to have it to work properly in Opera at least. I dunno about IE yet because my botched installs and messed-up java registry keys have not been fixed as far as the IE plugin goes. The update 14 installer run from the jdk installer also wrote all the nearly...

QUOTE (Xeno86 @ Aug 15 2009, 11:37 PM) oc_dt The problem you have is caused by your version of Norton CleanSweep not being compatible with KernelEx. Technical explanation: CleanSweep uses api hijacking technique to redirect api calls to APITRAP.DLL therefore KernelEx can't recognize the original api caller. There are two possible solutions - you can either uninstall Norton CleanSweep or KernelEx extensions can be...

Interesting! Lots of people will be excited. One minor detail (and this goes for every other project around): please, don't call'em "Final", this word has terrible implications for us 9x users, exiled from the computing realms. Rather use "Stable" or something more... optimistic, if I may say so. I'll try to test but it's gonna be very limited since my system lately is showing...
