Firefox is such a memory hug these days. But it's a good browser. Maxton is a chinese one, only used it a few times so I don't know. I'd recommend Opera though, best browser out there, it's fast and friendly.
If you're planning to use lots of add-ons, then Firefox is probably better suitable.

At windows,
Maxton is just IE shell,absolutely depend over IE,Not fully browser.it can't compare with firefox.Because of maxton is less than Flock,which is the nearest to compare Firefox.
Firefox is stand alone browser.,it can be add many add-ons and faster,secure among all of the browsers.

Maxthon? I hardly know what that is.

Firefox all the way!

i think firefox is much better, because it is more commonly used by web developers.

I recently found it! ...I develop websites. A client had a web page, with, by necessity, a table occupying more than one print page. No avoiding it. No way to style the CSS to break the table in predictable points (gracefully) between pages.

On "print preview" Firefox slams pauses breaks bombs crashes stops every danged time. It pops up a message something about "preparing print preview" then goes into 100% CPU and just hangs. You have to finagle your way into Task Manager and kill Firefox.

The Firefox folks have posted a message in their "knowledge base" (yeah, right) since Release 1.5. The problem hasn't been fixed since then. Their response to the problem, on the report, is, "Yes, that's a problem."

I think I don't care for that attitude.

IE and Opera and Safari-for-Windows (and a few other minor browsers I have) don't have this problem...
