Opera is known as the fastest and smallest full-featured browser, a first choice for people using older PCs and Windows 95 and a brilliant alternative to the default IE from Microsoft. This new version has a chance to actually beat IE hands-down because it has a truckload of new and exciting features. It complies to all the current web-page standards, it has a completely new interface (you can choose from single window and multi-window view), built-in search, a download manager, an advanced mail/news reader, print preview, a huge bookmark collection and much more in a 2Mb free package! Well, the free package also includes banner ads, but Opera is believed to be completely free of spyware, unlike some of its competitors. It’s lightning fast as well as stable and it looks gorgeous. It’s simply perfect! For a complete list of features check out the official website, there’s vastly more to discover Changelog: • Fixed several crashes when printing, sending mail, removing active web panel... • Lots of minor fixes. • Start bar is replaced by Speed Dial, Top-10 and Bookmark buttons can be found in the Appearance dialog and added to other toolbars. • Canvas: Stopped drawing lines from origin (0, 0) when using path functions in accordance with changes in WHATWG canvas spec. Note to Widget developers: This may cause problems with your Widgets if you use Canvas.
Known issues: • Overrides your search.ini file instead of merging them: Make a backup before installing. • Thumbnails should not reload on every startup. • "Reload every..." is missing from the context menu. • Middle-click doesn't open pages in the background. • Back button doesn't go back to Speed Dial. • Several skin and display problems. • Contains some hardcoded not translatable strings. • The "What is Speed Dial" link doesn't go anywhere. • Forgetting to put your partner's blog in SD1 can have dramatic consequences.
