1st I installed Opera ADfilter then copy and paste the filters I had from FF
the filters from FF I got here Filterset
http://www.diplo.co.uk/design/operatools.php
Works well here
...better than the FF adblock (since it blocks some stuff automatically like the 2 adds on AT)I downloaded it but haven't installed it yet. Is the install program really only 3.66 megs or does it download more during install?

holy crap yea it is, thansk man this si sweet
im useing this because im not useing opera 8 and didnt wanna f with operaaddblock to make it work with 7.5
im not useing 8 because for some reason it likes to loose cookies on me, happens on both comps here
an example is that threads i have clicked on on AT change color, i can click on a bunch and then close opera and reopen it and it looks like i clicked on nothing, however they will change to the change color, color when i mouse over them
it didnt happen at first it just randomallyt started liek 2 weeks after i installed 8, no idea wht it happened and it happened for every site, even google, the opera forums peopel couldenthelp either
ill give 8 another shot when i build my new comp at the end of the week
There has to be a catch to this.Originally posted by: rh71
brilliant move by Opera... they are making us think that we're getting such a nice deal that we must try it out. And to think web browsers were free.

No, there isn't.
The fact that you are using their browser (for free) and spreading the word has a high marketing value.

Opera: after 1 day of playing...
1) no ctrl-enter for URL completion
2) no find-as-you-type
3) some tables are wacked
4) no warning prompt if you're closing the browser but still have tabs open (this saved me tons of times in FF with tabs)
someone tell me there's a fix for these in Opera.

hey. i just installed last night, and did a bit of OTing in Opera. Overall i'd have to say the browser has a nice quick feel to it - seems to operate smoothly. i like how the images loading are listed in a ##/## format so you know what you're waiting for sometimes when a page loads. i didn't try any technical features of the browser, but for the time being i will probably stick to Opera and see how it goes.
props to the poster in Hot Deals as well - thank you. :thumbsup: :beer:

Check the options\preferences, 2 and 4 are covered in there.

i agree 1) is annoying, but temporary fix is to not press ctrl-enter at all, but just press enter...for example, if you want to visit cnn, just type 'cnn' and press enter. it will automatically append it with 'www' and 'com'
