      Hello,
      I need some direction in uninstalling opera. I plan to re-install later, but I'm working on something now and want it gone for the moment.
      I can't find a dmg file, which I hoped would have an uninstaller, and nothing in the browser either.
      Looking through the 7 pages here, I didn't find a topic that addresses this.
      I am running a macbook with 10.7.5 onboard.
      Any help is greatly appreciated.
      Thanks
