*Maxthon* is an Internet Explorer-based browser that will give you an
opportunity to take a break from the big two of internet browsing. Maxthon
really surprised us here at Softonic. If you are a person who likes *lots of
options*, you should really check it out - the IE-based browser has more
buttons, menus and configurations options than en. softonic. com/">Photoshop,
and you can really customize it to the max. All aspects in Maxthon can be
re-sized, moved or taken away and there are multiple skins, interface styles,
and language options. Maxthon generally opens its configuration options in
new tabs, rather than windows. This means they are easy to see and modify,
which is just as well, as there are so many of them. These options, including
the standard File, View, and Tools types, can be found in the Menu Bar, while
there are even more in the lower Status bar. If things are beginning to sound
a bit crowded, you can disable most, leaving the whole Maxthon interface much
cleaner. It would take a very long time to detail all of Maxthon's options,
so suffice to say that as well as the standard ones (tab behavior, display,
encoding), there are a multitude of other features, from *content control* to
image and *script disabling*, an in-built *ad-blocker*, auto form-filler and
advanced *screenshot function*. In fact, some of the options are quite
complex, and you might want to take a look at the user manual before jumping
straight in. If you like a simple browsing experience, or are a big fan of
your Firefox add-ons, Maxthon probably isn't for you (although there are a
good selection of Maxthon add-ons). *If you are an Internet Explorer user who
wants more options, however, or are just interested in life beyond Mozilla,
give Maxthon a try. You might be as surprised as I was.*Download *Maxthon
