I had the same experience with Opera - one good feature, and bunch of bad ones.

I've got the comments set up to auto-link URL's, so you don't have to type in all the HTML <a mumble > stuff - just type the URL and it will be converted into a clickable link, like:

Thanks again.

I wanted to also thank you, Richard, for helping me rid myself of using the Opera browser. On the LGF thread you mentioned Pop-Up Stopper, I tried so many so-called pop-up blockers before -- freeware and shareware -- and I kept going back to Opera for the true freedom but I must say Pop-Up Stopper is amazing and I can now use IE again. I can now view sites the way they're supposed to be viewed -- with images and javascript on for starters.

I made myself twenty bookmarklets for use in IE because I got used to Opera's keyboard shortcuts.
