Very clear thank you. But why do you have to mess around with these friggin mods when a little attention from the folks at Opera would have left it as standard on Windows installations.
I'd prefer that to them wasting time on a half-assed bit torrent modeule or friggin widgets!

Many thanks again.

Looking at this in the hope that it might help solve the problem that I'm unable to access the context/ drop-down menus when click on any of the headings in the menu bar (eg. "FILE";"EDIT"; etc)
I've tried creating duplicates & looking at the ini files

C:\Documents and Settings\chris\Application Data\Opera\Opera\profile\opera6.ini

and

C:\Documents and Settings\chris\Application Data\Opera\Opera\profile\menu\standard_menu (1).ini

The second file is quite lengthy. I was hoping there might be something glaringly obvious there, but I cannot see/interpret it.
Prior to this I tried unistalling Opera, then clearing out folders I could find for it, & then got rid of the only registry entry I could find- then installed the latest version. That did not solve it.
I've also tried disabling various extensions in Firefox in case they might somehow be affecting Opera. No luck with that.

I seems I need some expert advice :smile: if going to solve this.
Any ideas greatly welcomed !

lol. Ok, so I'm stupid, but when I press CTRL+F12, absolutely nothing happens lol. I was hoping this would be an easy 'tweak', but clearly one needs to be almost a developer to replicate the 'tiny menu' feature from FF. Very frustrating indeed.
