Download Maxthon 2.0.7.1245

Version 2.0.7.1245 of the browser was released today by the Maxthon builders. The browser is a so-called ‘wrapper’, a shell around Internet Explorer. It uses IE’s internal engine to build the pages, but has its own interface with all kinds of extra functionality. In version 2.0 we find, among other things, a refreshed appearance, different proxy settings can be used per websites, there are password-protected profiles for different users and the modular structure makes it more efficient with system resources.
