sorry, it wasnยดt my intention to spam. as i said i was quite satisfied with opera in my nokia n97, but that was long ago and the needs were far too basic then. i'm not very handy with computers, i just dicovered opera again a few days ago and relized that it could be used in normal computers, that it was not just a mobile browser. it looks a bit faster in my computer than firefox, that is good, but, for instance, is there any app or add on to import the logins and passwords that i have stored in my firefox? how can i import all my markers from firefox? is there anything else i should be taken into account to change from one to another? (i hope you excuse my english)

Okay, excuse me, for saying your comment was spam, I saw so much spam yesterday so I thought your comment was it also.
Yeah, Opera has changed a lot the last years.
I don't know if you can import that from firefox, not afaik. -

Warm.
Google Calendar reminded me (not that I knew it before) a couple of weeks ago that it was Dennis' birthday. :rip:
They expected a high in the upper 70's today (call it 25C) but they were wrong, we were into the 80s. It was my day off, so I did make it out to the pistol range today, but didn't stay too long. I may go back tomorrow, but if I do I'll bring some bottled water. Other than that, nothing exciting.

YouTube has started to work better recently: at least in my [true] Opera the page didn't reload when I got to post a comment.
No idea if it could have anything with my recent system clean-up though*:)* 360 is :yes:. -

Anybody has an idea?
Using a mail service, couldn't get where the techs, so...
Had got a couple of "mailer-demons" about not delivering messages that I hadn't ever definitely sent at all.
Only two happened, in a row. Nothing today, but...
Should I start panicking?

Regarding the previous message I missed - delete the messages of course, but other than that nothing you can do.
Most mail servers here recognize such fake addresses and no longer bounce them (they just ignore them), so I can't know how common they really are these days.

Off topic
The other day, when I entered this site with my Firefox, there was a wide bar here offering to download a new, up-to-date Opera.
Well, I gave it a try. Didn't install. Always checking everything with my AV, employed my 360 - it wanted to analyse it.
Well, by the way, the file version appeared to be like "36-something" (which is o'k, I suppose, - I'm with XP still).
So, today I executed a full scan - it pickedYandex.exefor analysis, but fortunately, returned me thisOperathing as "safe".Well, should I give it a try here on my XP?
And this thing - is it normal that nowhere on the download page I could find which version it was, nor it was in the filename?

The download page links to a redirector - plus you typically end up with the network installer. Sometimes you need to go to the FTP site to see versions there.
On the one hand, 36 is the last version that will still run on XP. On the other hand, it needs more memory than my older XP machine has. Mine is pretty much a glorified netbook, total RAM is only 1 GB - and some of that used by the onboard video. It will run, but excruciatingly slow.
If your machine has < 2GB, don't even bother. Opera 12 is the only recent browser that will work on it at any reasonable speed.

Steve, in "System Info">"General" I only find some "ะะะฃ" is like 0.99. GB.
I should suppose this OZU isRAM, shouldn't I? -

Steve, you forgot the full stop.
Yes, I know. I would've edited, but I couldn't - due to today's Big Trouble here (Friday 13th probably is to blame :devil: ). -

Who knows what was (is) the difference(s) between Opera 11.61, 11.62 and 11.63?
I'm thinking of updating of sorts:) Was 11.62 buggy or something? Just I've got that impression yonder days people didn't talk about it much - kinda skipped. -

I'm thinking of updating of sorts:) Was 11.62 buggy or something? Just I've got that impression yonder days people didn't talk about it much - kinda skipped.The guy who might know was @Pesala. As I recall, he had some strong opinions about which 11.6x version was best and why, back in the day. Personally, I stopped updating Olde Opera at 11.52 until the 12.x series emerged, because of some of the turmoil regarding the 11.6x version progression - unfortunately at this distance (4-5 years later) though, it's hard to recall what all the fuss was about. I think some of it had to do with speed/stability complaints, but I could easily be wrong. I haven't seen @Pesala here in quite some time, though I've seen him active over in Vivaldi's forums.
You might get some kind of clues by looking at the changelogs for the various Olde Opera versions here:
