@a4pacific yes exactly but the extension is fine ! It is Opera being stupid OR a bug that has triggered this. I have used the extension for YEARS .. no issues it is just this latest update as a result of yet more FB messing around with adverts and feeds!

@otcpharm If it is bad, how come I can run it using Edge?

@a4pacific Because Edge isn't Opera. Pretty simple. Nobody said it's "bad." Very clearly says Opera has disabled it, and gives their reason.

@mollycockles The author of FBP has a fix, I do not want to give it out here, in case OPERA people are listening in.

This is what the extension says - I've been using it for years, and this is the first upgrade that has had this response from opera

@loulou6: Same problem. Opera won't let me use it. Same error message. And I get an annoying "FB Purity has been added to your extensions" popup message every few minutes, even though it's not working. Frustrating.

@zione I went to the fb homepage and had a rummage in the comments, apparently Steve can't get to a computer for a few days :*( I'm using E (spit) until he's back and hopefully fixes it !

Not sure about the pop up messages though ? But I do have Adblock (free version) running on my Opera browser and that stops pop-ups and normal adverts elsewhere on the internet ??
