Work Fine.
See ya, Ldfa.

Doesn't seem to honor the question " Participate the Program, help Maxthon improve the product and service (Recommended)" when installing.

I deselected it and it was still selected in MSC

Confirmed.

In version 2.5.8, when you show the account dialog box, and then click outside it, it closes itself... This is no more true in 2.5.9, you have to click on the X...this is not a good behaviour, since the dialog is a fixed position floating dialog

UPDATE: the new float bar doesn't show icons if you use a skin different from the default, and you neither can customize it copying and pasting icons for the buttons in it (like ie for mute or account buttons recently introduced). If I'm not wrong, in previous version, float bar buttons have the icon regardless of the skin used!

Speed Dial 3 X More Options 2

More Options 2     Tab Bar:  Activate tab with Ctrl + Num  -> ACTIVATE

Result:  Speed Dial (Ctrl+Number) DON'T WORKS

another problem: when I access a site the url disappears and appears a letter (a  or h or m ...)
This fixes the thumbnail bug for me. Thanks! The thumbnails look great.

Does it happen if you disable plugins, for instance More Options 2?

no idea, depends on what your XP's Visual Style puts there I guess, for me it's a small group of four horizontal lines....
in other words, the scrollbar isn't Maxthon's

Well...my XP visual style is not set, and the small group of 4 horizontal lines is the correct behaviour of any scroll bar, I don't know why in my case is a transparent square that let you see what's under the dialog... It isn't skin related, maybe win7 related?
Great improvements! :D ;D
But what about icons and text in float button?

I am using Maxthon3 v.1.0 skin,and there is no images in float button at all. (only text). I wish I could change (edit) icons like in all bars in Maxthon ;)

But anyway - big thanks for this release! :]

Bingo... Windows7 I too get the transparant square...hmmm...not Aero related either, get the same thing in Windows 7 Basic...

different subject... when are we finally going to get the dots in the password field of the account dialog back? I've seen them once, but somehow they dissapeared again...

This is a known problem of More Options 2 plugin "highlight host" function. If it happens often, disable the function.

Was more a general remark, when you login manually (multiple accounts), the password field only shows dots during the input, aftwards whenever the dialog shows (I've got "Remember me" checked but not "Auto-Login") the password field is blank. It would look slightly more reassuring if there were dots showing to indicate something was indeed filled in... even if it is just dots and not a true masked password....just something...
