Fast browser - no doubt,
but some sites have problems with opera like yahoo etc. even in digit forum opera has problems while attaching files in reply.
PS: i still prefer opera over other.

the yahoo mail used to have problem in java but now opera does all them in ver 9.0 after

Prefer Mozilla Firefox. Its neat.

Not that I don't like Opera, but, I'm just used to Mozilla and its look and feel! :)

Without any features.

It will become dirty once you install some extensions system HOG.

well it's painfully irritating that they still use Planet Mirror for their downloads. that makes it impossible to use a download manager. the best way is to use an FTP browser and browse their FTP site and download it via it...
ftp://get.opera.com

Notable Changes:-

· Fixed bug where onload event wasn't sent to frames in some circumstances. Broke f.ex video on cnn.com.
· More NTLM fixes.
· Fixed some incorrect handling of cookies when loading pages setting/using cookies from feeds and email.
· Fixed problem with authentication and only if modified checks.
· Fixed missing space character in test for inline uuencoded content.
· Fixed a bug where dragging config.xml into 0pera does not open the widget.
· Made sure Flash that was bundled with Opera 8 is kept when upgrading to Opera 9.
· More stability work....

I used to love Opera but stopped using it since 9.0. The latest version sucked so much..it forced me away to Firefox. Opera 9.0 always used to run on 100% CPU...it was absolutely useless. I tried everything from deleting my profile folder to checking my glibc but nothing helped. In the end I dumped it...too much of trouble for a simple browser. Now I am happy with Firefox which is becoming faster and stable with every passing day :)

Opera needs to do more fix all the annoying bugs first!!It doesn't render pages very
well. FireFox is way ahead of Opera.It has cool extensions which are very useful.
Just loading pages fast isn't enough!!

Opera will load it from the cache. Its a good thing if you have slow connection, as when you start and say there are 20 open tabs. If opera tries to open all of them together it will take a long time , and will be a annoyance.
is there an option by which i can set to refresh the pages and not load them via the cache
