![]() ![]() Since a while Slimjet isn't much used here for a simple reason. A year ago I ran into serious issues with this browser. Whenever I uploaded images (as part of my blog activities) to an image hoster, I could no longer edit them locally on my computer. Slimjet blocked the image until I ended the the browser and all processes (Google Chrome didn't have this issue).Īnd something else came up to me while writing the blog post. I don't know if this already happened when I introduced the browser. If I advertise the browser here in the blog and convince (or trick) readers to install it, I would (if I register as a partner) get 0.5 US $ from each installation.Ī strange observation from a blog reader A few days ago German blog reader Guido contacted me with a very strange observation he made. I downloaded the Slimjet browser from the official vendor site and after the installation I found not Slimjet as a process in the task manager, but Mozilla. I also looked in the Control Panel into Uninstall Programs and noticed that a new program named 2.1.2.3 appeared there.Īlthough I didn't have Mozilla installed. The Mozilla logo was displayed in the Taskmanger autostart. The entry in the autostart was called Update and was marked with the icon of Mozilla. I didn't see this entry in msconfig when I went to hide all Microsoft services.įurthermore, two folders were created, which are called AMozilla. I could not get a logical explanation with these things and completely reset my machine, Windows 10 Pro version 1709. Now the bad behavior is over and I won't install Slimjet again.ĭo you already have any knowledge about my experiences? You can also contact me via e-mail. I was very insecure after installing the browser Slimjet. Slimjet's not part of Mozilla now, is he? Maybe the site was compromised? I'm afraid I have no idea what's going on. Strange stuff! Convering the last question: To my knowledge FlashPeak Inc. #Download slimjet web browser portableĪ short test of the portable version, which I quickly downloaded again, showed nothing. So I ran the web installer in a Windows 10 virtual machine. I can't confirm the observations of the blog reader regarding task manager and autostart. ![]() runs a test, and every 100th user gets an experimental browser, I could test indefinitely without observing this issue. I would not have blogged about that, if I hadn't found two weird things. Once I found the entries from the picture above in the control panel under Windows 10 V1709. The FlashPeak slimjet entry size is 0, while there is another entry 2.1.2.3 without many more details. The 27.5 MByte and the installation date showed me that it is connected to the Slimjet install. This runs in the direction of the experiences described by the blog readerĪnd there's another strange thing. I unpacked the web installer with a tool (but was only partially successful). But I could find a damaged icon (see picture above) in the destination folder. Even, if the image is damaged, that's a Mozilla logo – and the word 'Firefox' can also be seen in the lower left part of the defective image. Shortly after the German article went online, blog reader Nobody commented on March 8, 2018: That was the point where I decided to publish an article within my German blog. I just installed the Slimjet browser using an offline installer (Windows 32-bit) on Windows 7.Ī Firefox process wants to access the Internet during installation. Username > AppData > Local > AMozilla > AFirefox Username > AppData > Roaming > AMozilla > AFirefox The application is located in:Īfter installation you can also find the following folders: Under "msconfig" there is an entry "Firefox" at autostart. ![]() In an addendum this blog reader confirmed, that the mysterious program entry 2.1.2.3 with a size of 70,7 MB may be also be found in control panel under "Programs and features". The text was already in English, so I don't need to translate: On MaI received another comment from a blog reader using the alias Miss Finland. #Download slimjet web browser windows 10. ![]()
