sorry for the lateness of this. Desktop PSU kinda died and so I compiled this on my laptop which is fairly underpowered I've only compiled the 64bit binary for now, I get my new power supply unit tomorrow so I can do a 32bit build then https://casualgamer.ca/icecat/icecat-52.3.0.en-US.win64.zip https://casualgamer.ca/icecat/cross-build-patches_52.3.0.tar.xz https://casualgamer.ca/icecat/icecat-52.3.0-gnu1.tar.bz2
Keep in mind, this is an unofficial compile. But at least it's a new binary for 52.3.0 On Wed, Nov 1, 2017 at 8:37 AM, <domi...@dwalden.co.uk> wrote: > Chris, > > One thing you could try is disabling JavaScript entirely.
