<![CDATA[Get rid of megaphone in latest windows version]]>Ok, sorry for this -- it isn't necessarily a malfunction of Opera just a personal dislike that I'd prefer to not see. I'm talking the latest update of Opera where I suddenly have a bunch of side bar tabs that were formerly closed suddenly reactivated. Then there was the fact that now I have an Amazon extension which I never downloaded nor installed. Those I can fix. Here's one I can't:

There is now a megaphone in the upper right next to the settings dropdown. Opening it reveals four things: Twitter, Reddit, Blog and Newsletters. I don't and wont use these things and want to make the megaphone go away. Is there any way to do that?

Thanks!

I looked at it again and now I'm wondering if what I'm seeing is part of a new duckduckgo (start.duckduckgo.com) screen. Otherwise, after I get back from working outdoors in sweltering heat and humidity tomorrow morning, I'll try to get my act together for a decent screen shot. I'm beginning to wonder if I've misidentified a DDG issue as a Opera issue since they both appeared at the same time. Hmmm......
