I updated earlier today to the latest Opera version 53.0.2907.106 and this is confirmed in the "About" page. However for the first time EVER I have a red square in top left corner of browser that when I click on it it says in the menu "Get The Latest Security Update". I do not know whether this is a genuine message or malware can someone advise please ?

@mike88 It's probably genuine, Opera may show such alert when there is a new update available.

I installed Opera 53.0.2907.106 on 2018-06-21 07:00 PM (CET), on Windows 7 32-bit (stand-alone installation; the "Opera_53.0.2907.106_Setup.exe", file size = 46.310.040 Bytes, downloaded from here -> "Prefer to install Opera later? Download the offline package."

Up to now I didn't see any update hint, despite intensive use.

I don't use any third party add-on.
