BugSir006 Posted July 27, 2018 Report Share Posted July 27, 2018 Recently we’ve received feedback that it displayed messy codes at the start-up of the Browser. After much testing, we’ve found that the messy codes could result from the interception of Sophos Home. Please try to close Exploit Mitigation in Sophos and restart the Browser if you ran into this problem and had installed Sophos. Screenshots of messy codes and reference to the solution are as follows: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The proposal to disable the security option is not a (good) solution to the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's good that you're trying to solve this problem with Sophos. But do not suggest solutions that may threaten security and potentially cause infection with malware.

What else do you want or expect them to do? Click their fingers and fix it? Users have a few options: 1 / Don't use Maxthon and keep using Sophos till it's fixed. 2 / Don't use Sophos and keep using Maxthon till it's fixed. 3 / Disable ONE feature of Sophos and keep using Maxthon till it's fixed. Out of all them the 3rd one is by far the easiest for the user to do without having to uninstall/install programs. The user can decide how much effort it is for them to uninstall/reinstall, move browser data etc. and do what's best for them. They've posted about the issue and made a suggestion for a temporary workaround. Sure, not in the most eloquent way, but Maxthon has never been known for their PR prowess, but it's something at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
