    It has been a long time since any developments for the Wii browser!

    Paul: I believe Apple’s dev agreement forbids any product that includes a JavaScript interperter. (If this is in fact the case, this precludes any competing browser on the iPhone.)

    Good to hear they have upgraded it. Security is always one of the biggest issues and therefore should be handled in the best way possible.

    Already upgraded. Will this be the last 9.xx release before O10?

    I suppose not. There’s too many changes in O 10 alpha.

    hello,

    I downloaded opera 9.63 and its seems to have some memory leaks.
    Memory consumption goes upto 800M+ and I have to restart the browser to recover.
    Anybody knows a solution to this ?

    using Opera Opera 10.00 on Linux Linux

    Have been using 9.63 for a while on FreeBSD. However, today I decided to try 10.00, so loaded 10.00 on an old Linux machine – no obvious problems. Alas, most of the stat counters register it as “Other Browser”.

    Will have to stick to 9.63 to help keep Operas usage figures up!!

About Opera


Q: What is Opera?
A: Opera is one of the most powerful Web browsers around. A Web browser is the program that allows you to view Web pages. Opera is well known for innovation for PC browsers and bringing the full web to mobile phones and devices.

Q: Is Opera free?
A: Absolutely free.

Q: Why should I download a browser? Doesn't my computer already come with one for free?
A: It's about getting more out of the time you spend on the internet. Opera is designed to be much faster than these browsers and gives you powerful features that the default browser lacks. Default browsers like Internet Explorer are also more likely to be subjected to dangerous software such as viruses and spyware.

Q: Will Opera keep me safe from fraudulent websites and malicious hackers?
A: According to Secunia, a respected firm that tracks security in browsers, Opera has the best reputation and track record when it comes to browser security. Keeping our users safe from security vulnerabilities, fraudulent websites, and malicious hackers is a top priority for Opera. Opera is maintained by hundreds of engineers, developers and security experts who are constantly looking to make the browser even safer.

Q: Doesn't Opera copy all of their features from other browsers?
A: Absolutely not. In fact, many of the features that are popular in other browsers today were invented and pioneered by Opera a long time ago. Opera invented the precursor to tabs (in 1994), Page Zoom (1994), was the first browser to block pop-up ads (2000), first to add a Search field in the browser toolbar (2000), Sessions (1996), deleting private data (2000), Mouse Gestures (2000), User JavaScript (2005), BitTorrent support (2005), Widgets (2006), Speed Dial (2007), and much more.

Q: Does Opera support extensions, such as those found in Firefox?
A: Much of the functionality provided through Firefox extensions is already built directly into Opera, so you don't have to download additional extensions in Opera. In addition, Opera is highly customizable and supports all standard plug-ins.

Q: Can I also use Opera on my mobile phone?
A: Yes. And your Nintendo Wii, Nintendo DS or almost any connected device and mobile phones. Opera Mobile oftens comes preinstalled from the manufacturers, but if it doesn't you can install Opera Mini which runs on nearly all phones.

Q: This all sounds great, so how do I download Opera?
A: -- Opera on your computer
-- Opera Mini on your phone
-- Opera Mobile on your phone
