To add to what has already been said , Maxthon is well liked by many
Windows users, it's a "new and improved" shell for Internet Explorer.


So for WinXP users, does that means its only a shell for IE8 (since that's
the highest you can go in IE with XP)?


Look it's all in the browsers that willing to support XP
For Internet Explorer said that that will not support XP


Wall I like Opera for it support 98
But Love my Netscape it support 3.1

As life go You go for the one that give the Best support

Who Knows Firefox support Xp

I hope to see Opera for it support 7

Yes. See he
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maxthon

I've never used it, but it certainly doesn't look very
appealing to me. It wraps IE, which I'd never use
online, along with other browsers. As I understand it,
the appeal is getting webpages displayed in the best
suited browser. In my experience that's simply not
necessary. I haven't used IE online since about 2000
and don't have trouble viewing webpages. The other
"features" of hybrid browsers are lots of minor features,
as described in the link above. The basic idea seems to
be to blend lots of handy things into the design that
people may not otherwise know how to accomplish, or
that require work in other browsers. (The list includes
things typically done in Firefox with extensions, but
not actually part of Firefox.)

No interest in security?
