Pale Moon v28.2.0 Released : https://www.palemoon.org/releasenotes.shtml Pale Moon: Release notes
v28.2.0 (2018-11-13)
This is a major development and bugfix release.
Changes/fixes:
Fixed a major performance issue with web workers.
Fixed a rare crash on local networks with HTTP basic auth and unsupported cipher suites.
Fixed a performance/timer issue when leaving the browser idle.
Fixed an issue causing an empty dialog when launching executable files from the browser.
Fixed an issue preventing making entries to disallow sites to store data for off-line use.
Removed code to prevent extensions with binary components.
Fixed an issue with common dialogs being sized incorrectly for their content.
Fixed an issue with event handling on the tab bar that would cause frustrating behavior when trying to open/close tabs in rapid succession.
Switched default behavior for scrolling when a context or pop-up menu is open to allow scrolling, like in v27. This also affects scrolling in very long menus, e.g. bookmarks.
Added experimental Asynchronous Panning and Zooming (APZ) for desktop use.
Re-enabled the use and parsing of ICC v4 color profiles.
Removed telemetry code from the caching subsystem.
Improved full-screen detection for suppressing status messages.
Made all arguments passed to Init*Event() optional except the first for parity with other browsers.
Cleaned up some internal installer code.
Fixed making caret width configurable when dealing with CJK characters (regression).
Fixed drawing of table borders consistently when zooming a page (regression).
Exposed the "Save download location per site" pref in about:config.
Improved media handling (ongoing).
Added experimental support for AV1 in WebM videos (disabled by default).
Note: this is for WebM only for now, so MP4 and MSE AV1 streams (e.g. YouTube) will not (yet) play.
Removed the (defunct and incomplete) in-browser translation code.
Fixed an issue with CSS Grid layouts unnecessarily shrinking element blocks.
Fixed notification settings menu entry (opes about:permissions with relevant data now).
Fixed the launching of an undesirable background content process for capturing page thumbnails.
Fixed a focus issue in the bookmark properties dialog.
Changed the setting for reporting CSS errors to the console to false by default, to prevent unnecessary performance loss for recording this data.
Added control mechanisms for Opportunistic Encryption (both for alternative services and upgrade-insecure-requests) in preferences, and disabled this by default due to potential security and privacy issues with this transitional technology.
Updated the default reported Firefox version in Firefox Compatibility Mode to prevent "too old Firefox" complaints on websites.
Updated libnestegg, ffvpx, reader view components and several other modules from upstream.
Implemented security fixes for CVE-2018-12381, CVE-2017-7797, a better fix for CVE-2018-12386 (DiD), CVE-2018-12401 (DiD), CVE-2018-12398, CVE-2018-12392, several Skia bugs, and several crashes and memory safety hazards that do not have a CVE number. : https://www.palemoon.org/download.shtml Download Pale Moon for Windows Minimum System Requirements:

https://www.palemoon.org/download.shtml Portable versions
You've enjoyed Pale Moon at home, or at the office. You've wondered if you could use it elsewhere: in a library, on a public computer, in a cybercafé... You need something portable, that is as simple as plugging in your USB stick and running your favorite browser, with all your bookmarks and passwords at your fingertips? Then here is the answer: Pale Moon Portable!
Following the trend of other browsers, a portable installation has been created, which, thanks to winPenPack's X-launcher that the portable launcher is based on, is completely self-contained. Nothing is stored on the host computer; your bookmarks, passwords, history, downloads, etc. stay neatly where they belong: on your stick.
Note: these portables are not meant to have file/URL associations or integration with the desktop. Their settings cater specifically to use on multiple hosts, run from removable media.
If you require desktop integration of any kind (including pinned taskbar entries, launching a mail application from mailto: links, remembering default download locations, etc.), it is recommended that you do not use Pale Moon Portable, but the normal desktop version instead! Pale Moon portable has been specifically designed to take with you on removable media with high wear and slow access, and its default settings reflect this. Using it on a stationary computer has a number of drawbacks and is not recommended.
Download from the European mirror: 32-bit or 64-bit
Download from the American mirror: 32-bit or 64-bit
Download from the Asian mirror: 32-bit or 64-bit How do I use this?
Three simple steps:
Download the Pale Moon Portable file (below)
Extract the contents of the file to your USB stick in a folder of your choice:
Run the .EXE file and tell it where to unpack (should be an empty or new folder)
Run palemoon-portable.exe (not palemoon.exe) in the location you unpacked to
That's it! Simple enough?
The first time you run Pale Moon Portable, it may take a fairly long time to load, because it creates a new personal profile on your USB stick for you. This can take some time, also depending on the speed of your stick - up to 30 seconds, usually. After that, it will be much faster to start.
Of course, you don't have to use a USB stick; any writable medium would work: External harddisk, a networked drive, even an MP3 player if it allows you to access it as a drive in Windows.
Do note however that Pale Moon Portable doesn't run from read-only media like CD-ROM or DVD-ROM; it needs write access to the location it is run from.
