Title: wondering if anyone here uses or has tried maxthon as a browser? Post by: Stewie on March 06, 2009, 09:42:59 AM Appearnlty it is based on IE but has a lot more customization/features.
It is also has a 30% market share in china. I was just fiddling with it and wanted to know if anyone here has any experience with it or gripes about it.

As for Maxthon, a handful of neckbeards at GoDaddy used it, I tried it on my machine there, I can't see a reason to use it over anything else. There's nothing particularly notable about it as far as I could tell. Title: Re: wondering if anyone here uses or has tried maxthon as a browser? Post by: Ookii on March 06, 2009, 08:47:39 PM Isn't Maxthon just IE with more stuff built in? We used to use this back in the IE 6 days so we could have IE with tabs.
