      Hi,

      On numerous sites, Opera Mini (Android) will raise the Ask Before Download dialog box, for one or multiple videos on the page upon loading, without a request to download having been made.

      It really does become quite annoying, and diminishes the experience. Does not occur in Chrome.

      How can this be prevented, or is it a "feature"/bug?

      Thanks.
