More information
 
I hope they fixed the URL dropdown thing where if the page wasn't done loading, and you dropped the menu down and clicked a link, the thing would crash. Downloading it right now, crossing my fingers.
 
Very possible, because it happens at home and at work, both PC's running WinXP Pro Corp SP2, with same version of Opera. I'll try it out tomorrow at work and see if it's Opera or windows.
 
Hmmm, how did you find this out before me! :D I am always loitering around their website! You know how much I like Opera.......

We'll be seeing a lot more Opera updates from you :P.
 
Still no NTLM support for windows domains? Drat.

Edit: seems I was wrong! They HAVE implemented it, it works now! :)
 
Has anyone heard anything more about the rumoured Microsoft take-over bid? If that were ever to happen, it'd be a sad, sad day :(
 
No, didn't hear anything of it. If they were to try to buy *my* software (not that I've made any), I'd immediately GPL it :p

Hahaha, well said!

Concerning the rumour though, Opera has officially stated that all of there rumors recently circulating (including those about MS or Google purchasing them) are simply that - rumours. At least, at this point...
