Opera has been crashing too often and then started to not respond unless I rebooted the PC. I uninstalled the current version, re-installed and Opera opens but stays on the "loading" tab forever unless I quit the browser. I have allowed it through the firewall, I have turned off the firewall, turned off my AV and none of this has worked. Anyone have any experience with this problem and have a possible solution? Firefox and IE work fine but I prefer to use Opera. Thanks in advance, Jeff
