worse one i found now.

and they just upgraded it?

the dang thing takes three minutes to download a page of mine with images on
and it never gets all the images. i just tried it and each time i had to refresh and wait 3 minutes for it to say done. then i had to refresh again for another 3 minutes.

i gave up after 4 times of trying it never did download all the images?

the IE 7 will download that same page with all the imagaes in less then a minute
or minute and a half.

what's wrong with maxthon.?

i'll stay with ie 7 for awhile longer it looks like.?
beside this is the only forum that will work right with IE.

i can zoom in on this forum and all the links also zoom in to stay in place.

the other forums don't even do that.

Isin't maxthon just a IE ripoff? Get Firefox or Opera

those others dont do what i want to do with ie.

the maxthon use to be called "MY IE 2" it is just a gui style front that works with ie's engines and has more features for security then ie?

but i have them turned on and i get pop ups with maxthon?

i don't get them with ie7 ?

cause i use a thrid party popup killer that works with out
being connected to the broswer,

but it dont work with maxthon.

so i think i will stay with ie.

I modded my firefox, I can't remember what I did, but whatever it was, I don't get a single popup now. It's so strict even popups that you have to click for get blocked. Lot of ads now try to make the browser think you clicked it, so I had to do this,

i would like to know what you did to your firefox red

and can it be done to to the mozilla suit ><

i used to get no pop ups with mozilla but now some sites are playing really dirty and i get em anyways

... the ones i want to get rid of mostly are the redirect pop ups cuz thay are the most annoying cuz the page loads you start reading then bang new page where you have to click skip ad lol

It was in about:config. I wish I would of documented it

Do a google search for blocking popups and about:config, might find it. It also blocks links that open in a new window so sometimes you need to middle click so it opens in a new tab. It's very restrictive but I like it that way.
