Has anyone tried the Maxthon browser? I often try out different web browsers, but usually the more well known ones. Today I stumbled across this one which I had never heard of before, so I decided to try it out, and so far I'm pleasently surprised.

I usally use chrome for my daily work, have firefox also installed. A few weeks ago, I installed that one and I was also surprised: It starts up lightning fast, is rock solid. I am going to keep it up.

Their website doesn't work over HTTPS which instantly makes me not like them (I have an addon which forces everything over SSL where possible)
What's the deal with this browser anyway? Have they built it themselves or is it a fork of Chromium/Firefox or something?
Edit: Tried to install, the downloader stayed at 0% for too long, gave up!

I use it a lot, and am dead chuffed with it.
A well as a lot of little tweaks that are well handy, it's got a great selection of plug-ins, superb configuration and page sharing across devices, it's quick as you like, and has a nifty browser-core switch.
Downsides are minimal control over cookies (delete all or delete none), I'm not crazy with the basic dev tools (which I don't use, anyway, because TextPad is still the best for that, IMO), and a typo ("uncorrectly") on the advanced configuration page (hey, sh1t like that is important!).

It is defined as a ... cloud browser. Interesting concept.

my boyfriend has put parental locks on our desktop. He is using multiple IP addresses on his laptop as well as multiple wi fi addresses. He has turned all files into dll and exe so they can not be ooened or read. Feeling stupid, but what does all this mean?

That you're in a relationship with an idiot? But you know what they say - our choice in partner is a reflection of ourselves.

Sounds like lots of "boy" and not much "friend".

Also sounds like B.S.

Sounds like he prefers porn to you.

That he's a controlling a**hole and you need to find a new boyfriend.

It means you need a new boyfriend.

Try copying some of the (so called) dll or exe files to a new folder and then try renaming them to .jpg, .gif or .png, or possibly .doc, .txt or .zip and see if the file can be opened when renamed with a new extension.
And then have a good long talk with him starting with "Why?".

My advice. Date a human. If he doesn't trust you, he doesn't deserve you. If he is hiding things from you, he doesn't deserve you.

I assume OP's in high school. her boyfriend is probably just hiding his extensive collection of porn.

Like what Mr. Maunder says.
i'd rename some as .txt then open in notepad and see if you can work out what type of file they really are.
Assuming he's really changed them and isn't just playing some prank that he can undo.
As soon as you can get access to email - send him one.

I'm curious - is she a developer or did she just stumble here looking for a general tech support site ? :P

What makes you assume the OP is a she?
|
|
|
|
|
Probability, but you're right, it's not a certainty.

If those files are big size(like 500+MB), probably that'll be video files. Try Rename those files using video file extensions as Chris said(Ex. File1.dll -> File1.avi, BTW use VLC player to open video files).
Agree with others, he's not a boyfriend. Get rid of him

You will get lots of responses - ignore them all.

If there's a file called 2g1c.dll I strongly advise you to not try to look at that.
Believe me, it's better that way. Things that have been seen cannot be unseen.
