|  | Review | Rating | Date |  |  | "v- 2.1.0.1870" A bit too busy for me ... its all upfront attitude (you hide the stuff)
what's this Thunder stuff?
Installs at 14.62mb.. that's ok, just saying.. some seem to think ' wow!, look how small the download' , true, but what does it unzip/ install to
Its Zoomm didn't work, for me , on 2k/sp4 --- probably the only other feature this user would use (besides popup/ ad blockers) and good search engine portfolios are a dime-a-dozen , these days... but that's me..
I'm not saying it's bad
I just don't care...
Just get me there

by: aku46 | 2 | 2008-05-09 |  |  |  | "Talk serious to me..." I don't know what some people think... Maxthon is a super-good browser. That rendering issue (by Me): it doesn't matter, it normally reduces in milisseconds the loading speed. And it doesn't matter even more, because of the superspeed connections available today. And, by the rendering pages appearence side, web pages in most of cases don't need to be beautiful. The ones that need, uses so far advanced technologies than the ordinary pages. Anyway, our eyes will not notice the differences between the pages loaded with one or other rendering engines.
And the find in page issue (by CharlieOrlando): the new finding scheme is genial, when we order the find, Maxthon finds all the ocurrences, we just need click on the "+" signal to view them, and go directly in that one we want. And we have a preview of what's really writen, because some around words appear together. Anyway, if we prefer the finding scheme with autofind while typing, there are plugins in Maxthon addons site that works in this way. But the worst review was that about the IP tracer (by browman)... oh my... Maxthon can identifies itself as any browser you want it identifies itself, and can identifies even your operational system as any other... you just need to have the knowledge to do it, in the proper field, in advanced options. It can be useful to deceive hackers... as an example, they could view your browser and OS identification and think: "what I would want with someone who still uses IE6?" or "I cannot attack this guy, because he uses Mac-OS, my virus isn't for Mac-OS..."
Maxthon rules, who say the opposite doesn't know anything.
Have fun with Maxthoooooon!!!
by: Bogeyman | 5 | 2008-05-06 |  |  |  | "Best has yet to come" For those that disappointed in this browser then consider it again that u r using a beta version to test it out if u missing any kind of features then go to the maxthon's main site and make some suggestions don't say nonesense on this best browser ever made with tons of useful feature. I been using this since it came out with its original name called myie2. Maxthon always at its best
by: Tery | 5 | 2008-04-30 |  |  |  | "A major disappointment..." I've been using Maxthon 2 for about a year now -- and I've loved it. However, this latest release was a shock. To be sure the browswer is rock solid, never crashing. But, for some inexplicable reason, the Maxthon developers have removed two of Maxthon 2's most useful features: The "Edit" menu and the ability for Maxthon 2 to search for text on web pages. As someone who searches for text on web pages frequently, these two changes essentially make Maxthon useless for me. Needless to say, I'm extremely disappointed that my favorite browser has had it's functionality seriously degraded. Anyway, if you don't need a browser that has "Edit" functions or that can easily search for text in web pages, then you may like Maxthon 2. However, if you're a power web surfer, stay away! So, I suggest that you consider GreenBrowser or TheWorld browser if you're into power web surfing. Maxthon 2 -- the once premier Internet Explorer alternative -- has clearly been "dumbed down" to appeal to a less sophisticated strata of users. And that's a shame -- a real shame.

by: Candelabro | 5 | 2008-02-05 |  |  |  | "Jedijax" Jedijax::
This is Internet Explorer based, so it uses the same stuff...the IE rendering engine is NOTHING compared to the Gecko (Mozilla/FF/Safari(?)) rendering engine. Anyways, I'm not saying Max is bad but IE sure is...
by: Me | 2 | 2008-02-04 |  |  |  | "Simply the best!!" Firefox?? Opera?? Safari?? Internet Explorer??
All of them kiss the floor when faced against this low mainteinance, options filled, light application. This IS the browser to end all browsers. Now go and download it, before I slap your head!! shoo shoo!!
by: Jedijax | 5 | 2008-02-04 |  |  |  | "classic version" ive used many version of this browser over many years.
now that computers are getting older i still use the classic version.
thing is i learned a new trick and thought to share you all.
i play board games on a site that may take an opponet 45 days to make one move in a tense and complicated critical moment in the game.
heres where the browser comes in.
and lock and password protect the page . so as long as its in my system tray it can stay resident for long periods. so that when my opponet finally makes his move im able to look back at what my intent was.
ok not worth a five , but is say to you this i also reinstalled this same software twice in two different folders.
so one maxthon browser is dedicated to my game site and holds all 200 games on tabs.
and the other installed to just regular browsing.
so if you read all that and are still with me.
this browser can be configured to focus on place on the internet.
cutting click and load seek times down.
so just as a laymen
i give this soft ware a 5
5 for usefulness
5 flexibility and configurability
5 for skin diversity
5 for service lenth since 2001 adaptability
5 because its free!

by: Sir Cuminmycan | 1 | 2007-12-04 |  |  |  | "Good" Opera is best. Maxthon is second best.
by: AmAigom | 3 | 2007-11-15 |  |  |  | "2.0.5 is much better than former versions" deserves 5
