Tired of Mozillas/Firefox slow rendering speed? Tired of IE security and popups? Tired of all the ****

Then, John Cena recomends MYIE2 (Also called Maxthon)

http://www.maxthon.com/en/index.htm

Faster rendering speed and loading speeds than ANY browsers John Cena tried, more secure than MOZILLA itself, EVERY feature you can imaginable, MORE CUSTOMABLE.

I did my own research.
Firefox tends to crash and load up slower and render slow when the catch gets big. Eventually it kept locking up.
IE is fast but security is a concern.
Opera I havent tried

BTW
XS loads faster on myie2 than mozilla and ie

MYIE2 came first in place in terms of speed
IE came second
Mozilla / Firefox came last

Thanks for the link seems pretty good so far.
Like the interface, nice cross between mozilla and internet exploder. Not yet ready to set as default, thats firefoxes job.

Its faster than firefox.

Mozilla/Firefox is more secure than IE. How is MyIE2/Maxthon more secure then Mozilla/Firefox since MyIE2/Maxthon are just a facelift for IE. They still use the IE engine and such, just not the interface. I do use firefox, myie2 (I was having stability issues with maxthon on my machines at work) and IE on a regular basis. After tweaking all of them "similarly" I can honestly say that they all work at about the same speed on the 20+ lab machines I have them on at work. Firefox and MyIE2 are both nicer than IE in the features department, firefox does display a cpl of webpages annoyingly wrong. MyIE2 of course doesn't have that problem because it is just a facelift for IE.

I like firefox. These tweaks (http://www.tweakfactor.com/articles/tweaks/firefoxtweak/3.html) speed it right up. :)

I am fine with IE, but when I got spyware that I cold not remove I just said hell with it and switched to Mozilla.

I find that Firefox is just a hair faster with tweaking it with the link that pelikan gave.

Thanks Pelikan.

I am using OPERA from the first time i tried it. It's the best i think. The most important thing is the build-in download manager!

yes it works nicely, you can download as many things as you want at the same time ( this is contrary to IE which limits you to 2 unless you do some registry hacking) im still i big Firefox man ive read alot on www.cnn.com and theinquirer.net about some serious flaws in My IE2 becuase it is just a cover for IE so it does not close all of the security holes and it still allows Active X and automatically runs all html regardless. Mozilla does none of this so i cannot have any applications integrating themselves into my browser or any malicious code automatically installing.

Mozilla Firefox 1.0 on tuesday november 9th
