    Opera's sour note

    Reviewed by: kluyu, Mon Jun 17 2002

    I really got fed up with Inetnet Explorer's security problems & slow speeds... not to mention that it downloads ALL the ads on a page before the content. So I downloaded Opera to see if it was better. Bad move. It IS faster, but that's because it just accepts EVERYTHING from a site. The security is very very bad. It accepts all the "executable code" traps that lie in wait for the unwary at some sites. The only reason it has not had people ranting & raving about it's poor design is that it is still not big enough to be a major target for hackers & spyware. Also, it ruins a key file in windows "SYSWIZ386" which is used to troubleshoot the system. It digs itself into the registry & will not completely uninstall... I had to go in with a couple of registry programs just to get control of my own PC back.

    Good browser with cost reducing features

    Reviewed by: Lee Dunbar, Wed Nov 27 2002

    Have used various versions of Opera since 5.0, currently using 6.05. built-in popup killer, can read email and newsgroups, also performs FTP transfers and has ability to resume an interrupted file download in certain instances. No more popups, and costs the same as popular popup stopping programs!!

    Opera 6.01

    Reviewed by: homer5k, Sat Sep 14 2002

    I have had no trouble with Opera at all, other than a few plugin installation problems that are easily corrected witha search at the Opera website - a far cry from the horrible Microsoft KnowledgeBase monstrosity.
