Maxthon 2.0


Recommended Posts

can the tabs be rename now?

Not in the current beta.

can we use the old plugins for v2 ?

Most of the old plugins would work, But keep in mind that COM plugins support in Max2 is not implemented yet, Therefore some plugins won't work like Easy finder.

Thanks for yr reply Mamoun!

I moved back to v1 for now because I notice that v2 websited doesn't load as fast as v1. I saw their official forum and people are saying about this too.

yea, i read that too. it's some sort of bug which has something to do with the proxies. i'm sure it'll get resolved sooner or later.

Yeah when they resolve the issue, i will switch back.

Anyway how you guys find the Magic Wand function? To auto-fill/login forms.

My friend say is not safe because the username and password are stored in the broswer. Easy for hackers to get the data. True?

You are welcome, Hopefully the next beta would work for you.

I would rather leave this question for now, I need to dig in Max config files first to see if the login information is encrypted or not.

Maxthon 2.0's form data is encrypted. Don't know if the encrytion is stronger or weaker than roboform though. :)

I have used this broswer for the past 6 hours, it hang twice on me. It simply did not respond and I have to Alt-Ctrl-Del.

It was running more than 200K of my memory.

I'm going back to v1.5.9 again. At least can rename tabs still.

I used to have Maxthon 1.5 running along-side Opera for quite a while until I recently decided to go with IE7, which proved to be quicker and more stable than Maxthon 1.5. Just looking at the feature set for Maxthon2 makes it seem as a great add-on/replacement to IE7. I'll probably just wait for most of the stability issues and bugs to be sorted out before jumping from the IE7 ship back to Maxthon. So far, lookin real good...

I might come back in a future version, who knows. For now why not do something simpler? Highlight the word and drag it a couple of pixels. As long as you have Super Drag and Drop enabled this will open up in your default search site.

has it given me the option for how i save my groups, because at the minute im still using 1.5.2 when the new one is 1.5.9 this is because is my version when i save a group it overwrites the old group, in the newest version 1.5.9 it only lets me "append" the group which adds the tabs im tryin to save into the group of tabs already saved

ex

in .2 i have a group: a it has 3 tabs, when i save the tabs im running as group a there is still 3 tabs in hte group

in .9 i have a group: a it has 3 tabs, when i save the tabs im running of which there are 3 there is new 6 tabs in this group,

is there an option to change the newest versions way of handling groups?
