Let me guess: they're both based on IE? If so, that's why.

If they are just a 'shell' for IE, IE remains the default.

that doesn't really matter i think... try running this (start/run)
code:
c:\<path to maxthon>\<maxthon main exe> http://www.msn.com
if it opens msn.com, it should normally work <_<

I tried to run
code:
C:\Program Files\Maxthon\Maxthon.exe http://www.msn.com

and

code:
C:\Program Files\Maxthon\Maxthon http://www.msn.com

both of which gave the error

Windows cannot find 'C:/Program'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. To search for a file, click the Start button, and then click Search.

Put it in quotes, i.e.
"C:\Program Files\Maxthon\Maxthon.exe" http://www.msn.com
