Versie 3.2.0.2000 van Maxthon is uitgebracht. Maxthon is ooit onder de naam MyIE2 begonnen als een zogeheten wrapper om Internet Explorer. Het programma maakt gebruik van de interne motor van IE om webpagina's weer te geven, maar heeft een eigen interface met allerlei extra functionaliteit, waaronder mouse gestures en onlinebookmarks. In versie 3.0 is de IE-engine Trident nog steeds aanwezig, maar wordt standaard de WebKit-engine gebruikt. Deze wordt onder andere gebruikt door Apples Safari en Googles Chrome. Er kan eenvoudig tussen beide engines worden gewisseld. In versie 3.2.0 zijn de volgende veranderingen en verbeteringen aangebracht:

- Added Magic Fill button to the tool bar.
