Sheep Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 Hi, This is my first post. I've been using maxthon for a couple of years and find it works very well, although I haven't explored many of its functions until now. I've searched 'privacy; and 'proxy' in the forums but can't find an answer to my question, but may have missed something! What is an IE proxy? By using this IE proxy setting in Maxthon what level of privacy does it provide? How does it compare with using a VPN? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7twenty Posted August 20, 2015 Report Share Posted August 20, 2015 IE proxy just allows Maxthon to use the settings already entered in IE's advanced options. It's not meant to be used as privacy option, while it can be it will depend on what proxy server you have entered to use. If privacy is a concern, then a VPN would be the preferred option.
