Slimjet... Interesting. Never heard of it. Where did you hear about it, if I might ask?
It looks as if it has some nice features, but nothing really catches my eye - except for the NPAPI support. I might have to check this out so I can get some of the older games' avatars. Opera works for some of them, but I'm 99% sure that they stopped supporting NPAPI as well. Blegh.
Also, their website is super cheesy lol
Hi,
I heard about Slimjet from the Windows 7 forums, after asking on there if there was a way to disable Chrome automatic updates. (I did NOT want Chrome 45.0.x to be installed on my machine, as that would totally remove NPAPI support).
The current version is based on Chromium v44 so works fine - they are trying to work around the version 45+ restrictions to continue NPAPI support. Plus, there is the option to totally turn off auto updates, so if there's ever going to be a problem, you can stick on an old version quite nicely.
They also have a list of old versions so you can install one of those.
Also think that the newest version of Slimjet has a built in ad blocker, though chances are this can be disabled, and I don't need it since I already have ABP.
Opera probably won't support NPAPI either because Opera is now based on Chromium.
