Mypal68: Firefox 68, maintained for Windows XP

Do you have a Windows XP retro virtual machine or, god forbid, run Windows XP on your primary machine? You're going to need a sort-of up-to-date browser, and it turns out Mypal68 offers just that. Terrible name aside, it's Firefox 68 ported to and maintained to run on Windows XP SP3; SP2 and lower are not supported, but some people do seem to have some success getting it to run on those.

There are issues, of course: there's a 1.5GB memory limit, and the browser will crash when it reaches that limit, and 64bit builds simpy don't work at all, so there's only a 32bit build. Version 74.1.0 was released a few days ago, but that version number doesn't actually mean the browser is now based on Firefox 74; they had to change the reported version number for extension compatibility.

I'm currently setting up a dedicated Proxmox PC for retro virtual machines, and Windows XP will obviously be one of them. I'm definitely going to try this out.
