Blackbird71, I just checked my programs - the only Opera program there is the new 25 version that Opera covertly installed yesterday. The older version appears to be gone.

Yes, Upgradevictim, mine was actually updated (I checked to see what Version I now have and it was the new 25).

Today a popup asked if I wanted to update to the latest version of Opera. I said no. When I next turned on the computer - it was updated without my permission.

Also now my Opera browser won't run in a sandbox, which now puts my computer at risk of malware if I continue to use Opera. When I click on Opera to run in the sandbox it won't pull up the usual start page and won't allow me to go to any websites. When I open it outside the sandbox, suddenly everything's fine.

Please can anyone tell me how to run this new version in a sandbox? I have a new computer and I really don't want malware (which happens even with a good anti-virus program). And why on earth would Opera try to prevent us from using a sandbox???????

I tried to restore to a previous version but it said it couldn't find a previous version (I don't really understand that since Opera only downloaded 25 today. So second question - does anyone know how to get the previous version in some other way?

I'm not very savvy with computer things - and would very much appreciate any help anyone could give. Thanks.
