I meant that the "user agent" field contains this list of things. I suppose, this means that these browsers are similar.

RE: Download folder not accessibleOpera for Android
@yeswap , right, I don't have a file manager. I dont really know that well this environment: it seems to only have a primitive viewer for Downloads. Thanks for the suggestion, I'll try this file manager you mentioned.

RE: Is Opera interfering with browsing targets?Opera for Android
@leocg , I've just tested w/ a proxy checker, both a direct connection and a proxied one: the server knows my "user agent" in both cases. At least by default, meaning unless the proxy allows you to pretend to be a different browser and you configured it to do so. Passing through the kind of browser by default makes sense cause it may be important for rendering.
That aside, what you say is interesting. It may indeed be the server, thanks for pointing to this. I'll work on this possibility.
Btw, both opera and chrome are based on chromium. Wonder why/how the server discerns and discriminates (if it is the server). Cause it should look the same to it.

RE: Vkontakte DownloadOpera add-ons
Aren't you afraid to use this service? It's a Russian outfit. To say nothing about actually installing their executables on your box.

RE: Is Opera interfering with browsing targets?Opera for Android
@leocg said in Is Opera interfering with browsing targets?:
@croupf If you can access the page with a proxy, then you are being blocked by them.
How so? The server does know my browser, I think — even with a proxy in between. If it filters me out direct, it'd do so with a proxy as well... That said, I'll look into it: this scenario did not occur to me before.
Could you try testing with data savings enabled?
Will try.

[Solved]Login notifications (annoying)Opera account
Every time I log in (here or synching), Opera sends me an email with an alarm --- "someone logged in to your account!!!!" I know someone logged in, it was me! Lol. It is always the same device, IP address, and location. There's nothing even remotely suspicious about these logins: why does Opera insist on spamming me with this unneeded, useless crap? I could understand if in the space of an hour there were two logins from different coasts, but such is not the case. Can this spamming be stopped?
Thanks.

RE: Is Opera interfering with browsing targets?Opera for Android
@leocg , I don't use any VPNs and don't need to, and I'm on WiFi, no need for "data savings". Like I said, I can connect to this site if I go through a proxy (should be similar to VPN, no?). It looks like the browser "doesn't like" this site, lol. It isn't 100% so --- it had on occasion hooked to it, but it's like 1% of attempts. I keep testing with Chrome: never a problem, not once.
