Maxthon started as nothing more than an IE shell and was utterly useless. It has since developed into a 2nd rate 'me too' Webkit browser. Did I mention it's a Chinese company ? We have just discovered it quite efficiently periodically phones home to a server in Beijing and reports, well, everything: all your browsing activity, everything you have installed on your device, everything you communicate and search and pretty much anything else it can discover. If you love being seriously surveilled while on line, at least use Chrome and be sure you're being spied on by good old 'Muricans.
BTW If you actually like Chrome, consider Opera or Vivaldi, the same basic engine, some seriously better features and nobody actually spying on you.
