While I am here does anyone know how to get Opera to start when windows starts and have it load the system tray icon? Press CTRL+H to see what I mean.

What will this offer me over IE besides tabbed browsing (don't use) and ad blocking (don't care about too much)?

If you use IE, you don't use tabbed browing because you can't, no? Unless you have IE7 Beta..unless I'm missing something.. :p

As an Opera user, I'll go on the record and say that Avant! (IE) is pretty decent as far as IE goes. Opera just has more polish and a few more features though.

What I meant was, I wouldn't use tabbed browsing even if I had it.

Tons of features are found in Opera that cannot be found anywhere else at the moment. Opera is probably the most powerful browser in the world. By the way Tabbed Browsing was an Opera Invention that was avalable years before Mozilla decided to make it part of their browser. It will be many more years before they add features of Opera and add them to Firefiox.

Nothing. Not even homepage hijackers. :(
