#New Passport Login Mechanism
Using Maxthon Passport can enhance privacy and security. But from time to time you may need to view just a webpage or two. Login to the Maxthon Passport may not be the most convenient.

With numerous feedbacks from the users, Maxthon 2.5.7 is considering a different login mechanism. Maxthon starts with share account and a floating login dialog. Users can login as in previous versions or just view some web pages without login.

Here please be reminded that without login to your passport account, any changes in settings or addition of favorites are not saved to your account but the shared account. Also please right click the menu bar, select Add or Remove Buttons, and click reset to replace the old "Switch User Account" command with the new "Account" command.

#URL Security
As the gateway to the internet, browsers serve the first line of defense to malicious sites. To improve security of users, Maxthon gathers with???, the biggest and most reputable online payment platform provider in China to provide additional URL security to users.

When a malicious site is visited, the web page will be blocked and replaced by a warning page. The address bar will also be highlighted to alert the user.
