rr Posted February 24, 2016 Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 On windows XP and on Windows 7 and windows 10 the useragentstring default is causing errors from various sites. The standard user agentstring (see www.useragentstring.com) says it is: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Maxthon/4.4.7.1000 Chrome/30.0.1599.101 Safari/537.36 This is all nice and well but the Chrome version number is too low, so some sites will announce that access is denied due to having a browser that is too old. I think it is time to update the chrome version number and release in maxthon. When will the new update come for mx5? I also think there should be more default settings for the browser string.

Thats because you are using an old version of Maxthon. Use the latest 4.9 version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rr Posted February 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 Aparently it still occurs in the latest update 4.4.8.1000 time to grab the beta I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BugSir007 Posted February 24, 2016 Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 Hi, Thanks for reaching out. Please try the latest version of Maxthon 4.9.1.100 http://forum.maxthon.com/index.php?/topic/18880-maxthon-browser-for-windows-v491100-beta-released/. 4.9 generation comes with an upgraded core and you may face less "Unsupported browser" notifications with it. Please wait patiently for MX5, it will come with a higher core that will address this issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7twenty Posted February 24, 2016 Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 If it's just reading the string, then you can just change it to whatever version you want. If it's detecting the version by some other means, then you will need to update to 4.9. If that still doesn't help, then changing to Retro mode can fix most other issues. Outside of that, MX5 should fix most issues otherwise use another browser for the few sites that might have issues if none of those options work.
