I prefer Chrome. I have used IE, Firefox, Opera, and Chrome. I like Chrome because it is so user friendly. I can just type what I want in the address bar and go!!

My favourite is MyIE2 (version 9.27.68)

MyIE2 is an IE add-on and its the BEST one I have ever had.....

Has it been updated since 2010? Said on CNET that the name changed to Maxthon (Classic) and the latest version I can find is from 2010. Says it needs IE 6, which is really old. Are you using it with later versions of IE? What is the version number of MyIE2 that you are using?

Always interested in a better browser. Thanks.

Edit: I found Maxthon Cloud Browser from 2011. No updates since then.

Historically, it has been Firefox; recently it has been Chrome.

The less bloated, the better.

No I think it will work with any IE version..... (I use it with IE6) I dont like the newer MAXTHON ones,they are over bloated and dont run as well..... (Many good features removed)

MyIE2 has become a piece of crap to be quite frank!!!! (The last version of MyIE2 (The one I have) was the last good version of this broswer )

Well, Chrome would be really cool....but the combination of Chrome and HTML5-Player seems to be quite buggy. And Pepperflash........oh-my, that thingee is not very stable.

IE for me works very good.....except that pop-ups are constantly resizing my dang window size and I cannot seem to stop it from happening. Yes, I can set the pop-up blocker to strict....but then every time I change pages on a website.....I have to click a dialogue-box to allow the "pop-up"...........HELP!!!!!!!!!

tickyul, i had never heard of pepperflash before you posted this. i did a search and found out how to disable it.

https://www.enounce.com/chrome-disable-pepperflash

typing chrome://plugins/ in the address bar, i learned i had a ton of these flash extensions or whatever they are called

thanks!
