@Morro, count that as a success! This thread helps me because I deploy SJ and like to have the latest in my repository.

Oh I do, it proofs that SlimJet is getting more and more popular. Which it should ( And is. ) be in my opinion. It really does not matter who posts the updates, as long as it gets posted.

Good attitude, Morro. thank you.

• Update language files
• Fix a bug with autofill.

I do not know if any one else hat this or noticed it, but when I tried to update to version 5.0.14.0 the online updater kept updating to version 5.0.13.0? ( I tried re-downloading twice. )

I made this online feedback to Slimjet about that ...

I tried to update to version 5.0.14.0, but the online updater shows that it is updating to version 5.0.13.0. And through "About Slimjet" I also see that the version is 5.0.13.0?

In short, practically what I used as my opening sentence in this post.

I always use the offline installer. But I'm skipping this update so I can't say.

Yeah that is what I did this time after I noticed the thing from my previous post, but I wanted to mention it here just in case people where unaware of this mistake on Slimjets side.

I liked it and used it for a long time. But it gives me crash pages often and some sites doesn't load up properly giving missing elements.

I'm going back to SRWare Iron which is Google Chrome without it's privacy problems and auto-updates turned off. No other changes than that. And faster than Chrome itself.

One thing you might try is to turn off hardware acceleration and "force flash".

6.0.0.0 (11/7/2015)

• Migrated to Chromium 46
• Improved quickfill form filler
• Continued support of Java, Silverlight and other NPAPI-based ActiveX controls if you still need them.

 

[Paul B.]

I installed 6 Beta. I find that on Linux x64 it is more stable (I was finally able to turn hardware acceleration back on) and noticeably faster than 5 was. Major step forward.

 

[Morro]

I was first thinking ... that is quit a jump forward from 5.0.16.0 ... but then I saw the Beta part. ( Man I need some coffee right now. )

It is a Beta but I will try it out none the less.

Sorry but at this moment there is no "What's new" information yet for the 5.0.17.0 version, so if some one sees it after my post please post the "What's new" information for 5.0.17.0? ( Thank you. )

I bet this is supposed to say 5.0.17.0 since this was just posted today. There are two 5.0.16.0 versions which is how I came to this conclusion.

5.0
5.0.16.0 (11/8/2015)

• Fixed crash when signing into eBay.

It is indeed for version 5.0.17.0 ... Doh I only checked the version number and not the possible fix information beneath it. Thanks OokamiCreed, and it seems that the SlimJet team noticed it ( Or they where informed. ) themselves, because it now shows as version 5.0.17.0.

  • Improved quickfill form filler
  • Continued support of Java, Silverlight and other NPAPI-based ActiveX controls if you still need them.

EDIT: Hmm I did not notice this when I tried the Beta version 6, but all of a sudden ( For me at least. ) youtube videos load really slow. I have SlimJet set to force FLash player and SmartVideo for Youtube to buffer first. In previous versions this buffered the Youtube videos fast as is to be expected with Flash Videos.

But now it looks like the videos get loaded as html5 videos ... despite the fact that I force Flash player. Any one else getting this?
