Anyone use Opera?

Anyone use Opera? Just down loaded it. FF3.0 is giving me fits on a few web site so I'm looking for a new browser. Anyone know how to get my FF bookmarks in to Opera? Having a bit of a issue with that. So far seems very fast..

I have used it before, I found that not all of the sites I visit supported opera.

I'll keep a eye out for that. So far it's alot smoother than FF 3.0 was and faster. I was just sick of FF issues...

What issues did you have? I havent had any since FF3.

It locks up, when loading web pages sometimes it has no color, black or white page that's all. You can see shadows but nothing more.

I still have it and will use it, just looking to try other software also.

Interesting, it must be a windows FF thing. My FF (mac) is flawless.

Might be cause I also run FF on Linux(second hard drive/dual boot) and it seems ok.

I think FF is probably geared towards linux/mac os as they dont really have a good browser for them as windows has IE (though I wouldnt argue that its good).

I use opera, have since it way back (when it actually cost money)... No idea about transfering your bookmarks though.

Well with only 3 hours under my belt I still have alot of reading and playing to do with it. Right now the only thing I miss is spell checker...

Not that I've found YET. Being the key is yet, just started looking for one..

Im sure there is an option/download somewhere.

nick_n_ii · Oct 13, 2008

Ya I'm looking for it. There is alot of different things for it, such as for some reason alot of little games. Not sure why on that....

I have FF on my PC and I love it. Not one problem.
