Great job, Maxthon team.
This release seems to work good, but, to me, seems web pages load a bit slower than the previous one.
Btw, here some sort of a bug:
- go to a web page
- while the page is loading, start to type to the address bar
-> when the page load completely, address bar lost focus while you type and what you have inserted is replaced with the page url!
(this could be present in older release too, maybe, never noticed <-> this is also a cause of the page loading slower, for me :D)

Beta's comming closer
seems that this version still has some problems for switching languages using the ALT+SHIFT combination - i need to use this combination more than once till it finally really do the switching.
also, text alignment(using CTRL+SHIFT) doesn't work .
other than that , good job.

download manager module not work under win2k, and confirmed by dev team
Adblock Plus for Maxthon2 -- SiteListUpdater
Nothing critical and sorry if this issue was already reported or is wellknown, but on localized versions of Windows (Czech in this case), this dialog isn't really helpful (see the link). Either use non-localized controls (buttons) or translate the whole dialog.http://yfrog.com/3om3dialogp
please make the download manager a tab like in maxthon 2.5

So that we can Modified the options
We are now waiting......

Switch between input languages

Still cannot switch between input languages using left alt+shift - only available in address bar, not in text boxes in websites
Working fine over here and im not experiencing any slowdown on page loading. Sure hope they get us some tab restore/management and ad hunter soon.
But good to see a download manager

Download Problem

Is there another download place as I can't download version 3. It says its going to take 2 1/2 hours but resets before it's done. Tried about 10 times with no luck.

You need to take this up with the translator @ translate3.maxthon.cz

not a Maxthon issue if the translator hasn't yet updated the language file.

In the meantime, if you want you can update the file of this release.

This is the section to look for in the language file
Copy to clipboard
Code:
[MxDialogJSConfirm]
caption=Message from webpage "$1"
title=Alert
text=Are you sure you want to navigate away from this page? Press OK to continue, or Cancel to stay on the current page.
Be sure the file is saved in the same format (unicode). Most editors I know of keep the encoding, but there might be out there that always default to ANSI
got a question.
where's the setting?
i can't find it in the browser.
thanks in advance.
When I do a mouse gesture (doesn't matter which one) I got screen flickers (it is ~< 1s screen is white than black and then back to normal...
Anybody got the same in this version?
