360 Secure Browser (Chinese: 360安全浏览器) is a web browser developed by the Qihoo company of Beijing, China.[2][3] It offers page layout using either the Trident engine, as used in Internet Explorer, or the WebKit engine that was adapted for Google Chrome. It was first released in September 2008.[2]
World version
In early 2014 Qihoo released a global version of its web browser.
In January 2011, Qihoo claimed that it was the second most popular web browser in China (after Internet Explorer),[3] with 172 million monthly active users, 44.1% of Internet users in China.[4] Independent sources claim that the true figure is between 2-7%.[5] In November 2014 the Qihoo browser was the 5th most popular browser in the United States.[6] Its main competitors in China are the Sogou High-Speed Browser (Chinese: 搜狗高速浏览器) by Sogou.com, CM Browser (Chinese: 猎豹安全浏览器) by Cheetah Mobile, QQ Browser (Chinese: QQ浏览器) by Tencent, Baidu Browser (Chinese: 百度浏览器) by Baidu.com and Maxthon .
Controversy
High usage numbers may be due to the browser being difficult to uninstall and a warning pop-up that appears when a user attempts to install another browser, claiming that the other browser is unsafe and should not be run.[7][8]
