Thanks for the heads up

[Anupam]

No problem .

BTW, I noticed that while installing, Iron now offers its own search engine to make default, instead of Google.

Hey Anupam....

Simple question for you. Does Iron install on both an administrative and LUA in XP without any special procedures like Firefox does?

Thanks In Advance

[Anupam]

Sorry Taurus, no idea about that, because I only use an administrative account

[Taurus]

It's strange. On Vista and Win 7, both Chrome and Iron will install in both an administrative account and the standard user account. Not so much on XP.

I feel a hardware and OS upgrade in my future.

The old XP box refuses to give up though. Thing is, it runs 99% better today than when I first got it 8 years ago. Boot times are fast and system partition imaging results in a 5.6 GB image. Try accomplishing that On Vista or Win 7 machine. Anyway............

Same here Taurus. I remember that you and I have almost similar setups. I too have XP on my PC, and the hardware is old too.. P-IV with 1 GB RAM. Not too old, but still the newer computers feel much faster.

But then again, like you, I feel good with XP, and it runs quite well. To be frank, Vista and Win 7 feel bloated to me. I will stick with XP as long as I can.

Strange though, that Iron does not install in LUA. Maybe you should ask on their forum about it? Or maybe, they are not supporting XP anymore, since MS itself is not supporting it.

Yes, same xp computer configuration. I've got a Vista Laptop and I've worked on Win 7 machines and all I can say is give me old xp anyday. Guess we're lucky to still get security updates.

OMG...we've gone off the OP's original topic.

I have never had Iron installed on my real system but have installed
it many times using Sandboxie, never any issues.
I run as an administrator so I guess it does install fine on XP, at least
when running as an administrator.
I hope it helps, Taurus.
