[SOLVED] Malware destroyed my 7 Pro install (notebook)

Not tried Safari ... dont think I will now - thanks for the info Cat

The widgets are sort of like gadgets in Windows. I was really just trying to figure out how to install add-ons to Opera, but now I'm not sure those even exist.

Speed Dial works fine for me. Maybe try reinstalling?

But I won't be be fooling with Safari again, period. I'd rather use IE6, at least I do know its weaknesses.

Cat,
I will have to agree with you here m8,my dad always said to me,son its always better the DEVIL you know than the DEVIL you don't,yes I would rather use IE6 knowing it's flaws etc rather than using that Safari on my (MAC-BOOK) I use IE & I have used the Mac once in the last year,I hate them but it was new for $400.00 damaged stock.Nothing wrong with it I only used it to upgrade it to the latest O/S.
have a great weekend cat & members
respectfully

I've used Opera in the past, it is a decent browser, especially after Opera 10 was released. I use it on Mint, sharing time with Firefox. Those "speed dials" can be confusing at first, but you get used to it. I'm actually surprised that it's not a higher rated browser than it is.

One thing that it could use is the eye candy that Safari has. Looks count for a lot these days, and Opera could use a little more. But it's still not a bad browser, and they have a good email program, too. I've used Operamail for over a year now, and they do a decent job of filtering spam.

Opera has a lot of potential to be a contender, it's not IE, but Firefox standing in their way. That being said, they could be an easy third place browser, as long as they keep advancing the way they are.
