New Browser

I just switched browsers from Mozilla Firefox to Maxthon MX5. Wow, much better, faster and no crashes.

I'm still on WinXP and Mozilla will stop supporting XP in June. I think they already stopped supporting it because I was slow and it kept crashing.
MX5 says it will continue support on Win XP.

However, none of my pictures are visible using MX5. Is this a internal RX7Club thing or am I missing a setting in MX5?

Any help?

I'm not sure I'd trust the Marathon browser. They send your data back to China.

Yea, I read that. The Chinese said they stopped all that data collecting stuff but.....
I just want a browser that is still compatible with Win XP and can see my pictures until I upgrade OS.
I tried Opera too, but no pictures.

Do you think the Chinese are blocking my pictures?

Waiting on Admin to advise.
