I think I may try it out and post a review over here. But it will have to be pretty amazing to replace Firefox in my books! Ari,

I use both Maxthon and Firefox. Maxthon uses the IE engine so everything looks and feels like IE except that you dont get the ads and garbage you get from IE. It also has a lot of cool features. If it works on IE it will work on Maxthon. In fact after installing Maxthon all my favorites and URL history from IE was already installed. I wouldnt be surprised if many Israelis use Maxthon.

I also think that maybe Microsoft has such a strong hold in Israel that people either aren't aware that there are other options out there, or they're aware but figure that no one can beat Microsoft for features and Hebrew compatibility. Whatever the case, I hope we'll start to see a change in the realm of Israeli web design. Ari, that’s an interesting take on the Israeli devotion to Internet Explorer.

I've also noticed that israeli websites are more likely to be IE only. One possible explanation is that Israelis are grateful for the tech jobs provided by Microsoft. I also wouldn't be surprised to see very few PC's with AMD chips That’s a good question. I’ve also noticed that israeli websites are more likely to be IE only.
