Look up "maxthon" on Google. It was originally written in China. In the US, it's a much better browser than IE itself. It had features such as tabbed browsing long before Microsoft, Opera, OR Firefox added them. Plus, since it uses the IE core, it renders pages just the way IE would.

Look up the article on Mozilla's blogs by Ghen Kanai, "Web Browser Marketshare in China" http://blog.mozilla.com/gen/2009/09/15/web-browser-marketshare-in-china/
This references the original article in Global times by Zhao Qian "microsoft melting" or "Chinese browsers are putting the heat on Internet Explorer"
