Yes,my wallet can't sync either,i just can't figure out what happened.Dose the dev alive or can someone help me fix this situation?

Try the "resetcheckpoint / getcheckpoint" combination followed by letting maxcoin-qt re-sync as described at

http://maxcoinnews.net/maxcoin-0-9-2-1-release/

Worked for me.  Also, here is my complete maxcoin.conf:

# Seed nodes
addnode=maxexplorer.cloudapp.net
addnode=max.suprnova.cc

# Enable RPC
server=1
rpcallowip=*

# RPC information
rpcuser=
rpcpassword=

# Mining
gen=0
par=2

enforcecheckpoint=false

that part i underlined is a severe security vulnerability and will allow the public to rape your ass for coins.
do not EVER use that command in your conf --> rpcallowip=*

Please explain.  That command is included in the default maxcoin.conf which is supplied with the Linux source code for every version to date, including the present one, maxcoind/maxcoin-qt 0.9.2.1.  If what you are saying is true, then the developer is leaving every Linux user wide open to attack.

*edit* Oh, OK, I see what you're saying.  If someone could take control of my router, theoretically they could send a transfer command to my wallet.  Not likely given the type of router security that I have.  But I can see your point.
