==Overview==
Maxthon is a company known mainly for producing [[Windows]] web browsers.<ref name="maxthonabout"/> It has corporate offices in [[San Francisco]], [[Beijing]], [[Hong Kong]] and [[Shanghai]]. The bulk of Maxthon’s engineering live and work in their Beijing office, which develops and maintains versions of the Maxthon web browser for Windows, [[Mac OS|Mac]], [[iOS]], [[Windows Phone]] and [[Android (operating system)|Android]].<ref name="mattson"/>

==Corporate history==
In 1999, current CEO Ming Jie "Jeff" Chen founded [[Hong Kong]]-based Mysoft International Limited to distribute the MyIE browser.<ref name="seventeen"/> In 2005 the company received [[seed funding]] from [[venture capital]] firm [http://www.wiharper.com/ WI Harper Group] and [[Morten Lund (investor)|Morten Lund]], the first [[Skype]] investor, and Chen moved the company to Beijing.<ref name="eighteen"/><ref name="nineteen"/> In 2006, Maxthon received further investment from the US-based [[venture capital]] firm [[Charles River Ventures]].<ref name="fifteen"/>
On April 10, 2007, ''[[TechCrunch]]'' reported that [[Google]] had invested at least US$1 million in Maxthon;<ref name="twenty"/> this was denied the following day by Chen.<ref name="twentyone"/> However, in an interview with the Chinese [[Web portal|portal]] [[Sina.com]], Chen did not rule out future "co-operation" between the two businesses.<ref name="twentytwo"/>

==Software==
===Development philosophy===
According to Maxthon VP and Assistant CEO Karl Mattson, Maxthon develops its web browsers with three goals:
# High performance and standards support.
# An ‘out of the box’ experience with more integrated features than other browsers.
# ‘Seamless browsing.’ Sometimes referred to as ‘portability’ by the company, this is a commitment to offering users the ability to ‘pick up where they left off’ by having parts of their web browsing synced to an encrypted, free cloud account and then pushed to other platforms.<ref name="mattson"/>
===Development history===
According to Maxthon International CEO Ming Jie "Jeff" Chen, Maxthon was based on MyIE, a popular modification created by Chinese programmer Changyou to customize [[Internet Explorer]] web browser.<ref name="eleven"/><ref name="twelve"/> Changyou posted most of the source code<ref name="thirteen"/> for MyIE on his [[Bulletin board system]] before leaving the project in 2000. Chen then continued independently developing MyIE and in 2002 released a new version, MyIE2.<ref name="fourteen"/> Users around the world were quite active in contributing to MyIE2's development, adding many [[Plug-in (computing)|plugins]], [[Skin (computing)|skins]] and assisting with [[debugging]]. MyIE2 was renamed Maxthon in 2003.<ref name="fifteen"/><ref name="eleven"/>
Maxthon 2 was introduced in July 2007,<ref name="maxthontwos"/> and Maxthon 3 was released in October 2010. Later that year Maxthon began introducing browsers for portable devices; in December Maxthon for Android<ref name="six"/> was released.<ref name="thirtyeight"/> On July 7, 2012, Maxthon for Mac<ref name="sixteen"/> was released,<ref name="thirtyseven"/> with Maxthon for iPhone<ref name="thirtynine"/> and iPad released in August 2012.<ref name="forty"/> On December 10, 2012, Maxthon Cloud Browser, also dubbed Maxthon 4, hit the market.<ref name="fortyone"/>

-==Software==
-
-===Development philosophy===
-According to Maxthon VP and Assistant CEO Karl Mattson, Maxthon develops its web browsers with three goals:
-# High performance and standards support.
-# An ‘out of the box’ experience with more integrated features than other browsers.
-# ‘Seamless browsing.’ Sometimes referred to as ‘portability’ by the company, this is a commitment to offering users the ability to ‘pick up where they left off’ by having parts of their web browsing synced to an encrypted, free cloud account and then pushed to other platforms.<ref name="mattson"/>
-
-===Development history===
-According to Maxthon International CEO Ming Jie "Jeff" Chen, Maxthon was based on MyIE, a popular modification created by Chinese programmer Changyou to customize [[Internet Explorer]] web browser.<ref name="eleven"/><ref name="twelve"/> Changyou posted most of the source code<ref name="thirteen"/> for MyIE on his [[Bulletin board system]] before leaving the project in 2000. Chen then continued independently developing MyIE and in 2002 released a new version, MyIE2.<ref name="fourteen"/> Users around the world were quite active in contributing to MyIE2's development, adding many [[Plug-in (computing)|plugins]], [[Skin (computing)|skins]] and assisting with [[debugging]]. MyIE2 was renamed Maxthon in 2003.<ref name="fifteen"/><ref name="eleven"/>
-
-Maxthon 2 was introduced in July 2007,<ref name="maxthontwos"/> and Maxthon 3 was released in October 2010. Later that year Maxthon began introducing browsers for portable devices; in December Maxthon for Android<ref name="six"/> was released.<ref name="thirtyeight"/> On July 7, 2012, Maxthon for Mac<ref name="sixteen"/> was released,<ref name="thirtyseven"/> with Maxthon for iPhone<ref name="thirtynine"/> and iPad released in August 2012.<ref name="forty"/> On December 10, 2012, Maxthon Cloud Browser, also dubbed Maxthon 4, hit the market.<ref name="fortyone"/>
