Hi BugSir007,
I really appreciate your help!
I have tried logging out from Maxthon and re-opening Aol Reader in Retro mode. Still the same behaviour.
I have also tried to play around with UA codes and nothing worked (besides, the default codes seem quite outdated even in the last version of Maxthon; I have also manually inserted codes with more updated browser and OS versions... still no success).
Although all of this did not work, I found out that the supported browsers for Aol Reader are IE 9.0 or above, Chrome, Firefox, ecc... In my laptop I only have the default IE 8.0, which comes with windows 7, and I never upgraded it to a newer version as I do not use IE at all!
When in Retro mode, Maxthon works then as IE 8.0, and this is why, I think, AOL reader does not run.
Please, let me know what you think about it. If that is likely the reason, then I'll just leave things like that, as I am not really willing to update IE...
Many thanks and greetings,
Michele
