I used to be a Maxthon fan, and worked with it for many years, till Mozilla Firefox hit the 3.5 version, and I found the plethora of add-ons of that browser to put Maxthon to shame.
I guess Mozilla has a lot more support from software developers, and its community is continuously adding perks to the browser.
Whatever the case, once I figure out a way to fix the flash-lag in Firefox, I'll be kissing Maxthon goodbye, for good.

ive used it wayyyyyyy back when 2 was not yet out at all...love it. That said ive had a couple issues with some versions but i just drop back to the one installed before and wait for the next one, 95% of the time it has been just what the doctor ordered.

This has been my daily browser for 2yrs., tried all of them. I've found the Classic version to be glich-free.

One problem with Maxthon2, lacking in Maxthon Classic, is that the new tab buttons by default will open only blank pages, not your Google homepage. If you configure the Maxthon toolbar Home button to open a new google homepage, it will lose the ability to take a tab back to the homepage.

Good browser shell, but it does NOT work on Win98SE systems. The program author should clarify that only their "Classic" version runs properly on Win98. Even the classic version has some issues with a password manager, as it does not always auto-fill password info correctly, as it will often trigger opening a help menu.
Other than those issues, it seems to be a much better alternative to using IE.

On 2kpro..
I know it's a beta release, but...
When I try to use the Setup Center, I get blank screen with notice to Enable Javascript.
Maybe I'm missing something but I don't see it.
The Content Control won't hold my command (display checkmark).
My IE Security is set to medium ; I don't have this problem with any other IE-based browser.
From its previous release , the Zoom feature now works for me.
I'll give it a 3 because it is in Beta stage and the Authors wisely and respectfully listed what the update consists

super convenient and super-fun. brings new excitement to browsing
by: cybertyger | 5 | 2008-05-22 | | | | "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

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!!!

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.
