Problem accessing Wikipedia?


Recommended Posts

I notice that if I try to access Wikipedia at https://www.wikipedia.org with the default settings in Maxthon I get the following message "Error code 100 (net::ERR_CONNECTION_CLOSED)" and the page does not open. The workaround solution that I found is to use the switch core setting to IE (the default works). Is this a known issue with the particular website?

Haven't reproduced. How about guest mode?

Thanks for the replies.

I can access Wikipedia with no problem using IE 11 on the same PC. So far no other sites have given me this problem with Maxthon.

I'm using Maxthon in a work environment where there may be some browsing restrictions Could it be a firewall setting? However, it's very odd that it would affect only the Wikipedia site.
