pogz Posted July 14, 2004 Share Posted July 14, 2004 Let your friend use Maxthon and you can use Firefox. Then everyone's happy :p. This has been discussed 1000 times.

dL Posted July 14, 2004 Author Share Posted July 14, 2004 Well I KNOW by now, from Neowinian's General P.O.V., that Firefox is the best :p I just want to learn why Maxthon isn't that good, because I don't know. dL Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/190100-browser-comparison-maxthon-vs-firefox/#findComment-2482217 Share on other sites More sharing options...

L3thal Veteran Posted July 14, 2004 Veteran Share Posted July 14, 2004 Maxthon is the best way to browse the web if you like IE. If you do not feel comfortable using IE, then move to Firefox.

after fallout Posted July 14, 2004 Share Posted July 14, 2004 The gecko engine is simply better than Internet Explorers currently is IMO, but the only way to really figure out which one is better for you is to try them both.

Marshalus Veteran Posted July 14, 2004 Veteran Share Posted July 14, 2004 No browser is made for everyone. That's why there are preferences. I used to be totally anti-Netscape Navigator / pro-IE, now I'm all about Firefox. My preferences changed on what I liked. I give up a little bit of speed for Firefox (not Windows integrated, so won't load as quick) but I gain more security and features than IE or its off shoots give me. It's a give and take.

giga Veteran Posted July 14, 2004 Veteran Share Posted July 14, 2004 Go to the firefox tweaks thread or the firefox guide and tweak ff. Firefox is amazingly fast.

OPaul Posted July 14, 2004 Share Posted July 14, 2004 No problems with Maxthon yet, not one crash with 170. Firefox is just to slow for my tastes.

L3thal Veteran Posted July 14, 2004 Veteran Share Posted July 14, 2004 Personally, IE is faster loading pages than Firefox, but I still remain using Firefox. I'll probably switch to IE once Sp2 is released.
