Problem Summary: Security setting annoying.

Dear Sir;

I do a great deal of computer surfing each and every day. I love Maxthon.com, but each and every site I enter, these totally, annoying security blocks simply take all the joy out of my surfing. Is there any way I can set it to automatic, so that it leaves me alone ?

Respectfully;
