Off topic but if anyone is interested they can receive a free registration
code for the Opera browser as a special offer to celebrate their 10th
anniversary.

The free registration codes are available for the following operating
systems:

Windows
Linux Intel
Linux PowerPC
Linux Sparc
FreeBSD
Solaris
Mac

To receive your free registration code go to
http://my.opera.com/community/party/reg.dml or if you wish to do it via
email -

"for one day only, you can get an ad-free version of Opera. Simply e-mail
registerme@opera.com to obtain a registration code. This offer is valid from
12 a.m. Tuesday, August 30 to 12 a.m. Wednesday, August 31 2005 (PDT)"

More details on Opera's 10th anniversary are at

It has been reported by world+dog ... but Opera is now free on all platforms. The code which supports registration and the infamous advertising banners at the top right of the icon bar (shown if you weren't registered) has been removed.

I have it installed on Ubuntu Linux and OS X and am impressed; it is remarkably fast and the implementation of tabs is "just right" (new tabs appear when they should and don't appear when they shouldn't).

Its an internet browser mate.


Just a thought, if they've removed the advertising banner, have they replaced it with adware/spyware?

Well, I run it on Mac and Linux and if Opera Software dared to do so on either platform they would be strung up :!:

On OS X it is the only browser which renders this forum perfectly (Safari has a mass of problems and Camino/Firefox are far from correct) ...
