but what i want is to get rid of them.
I don't wish to have them on my machine any longer there annoying me.
Can someone please tell me how to get rid of them?

I was looking for the same thing, Charlene. I just now figured it out.
Go to the Tools menu, select the Preferences menu item, and then in the window that comes up, click the Advanced tab.
Then, in the list that will appear at the left side of the window, highlight Shortcuts (it's near the bottom).
Right at the top is a checkbox which says "Enable mouse gestures". To get rid of mouse gestures, you'll want to uncheck that.
There's a screenshot of what window and checkbox I mean right at the top of the guide page this blog post links to - http://my.opera.com/Tamil/blog/show.dml/55311.
Hope that helps. :-)
As for me - I'm so happy to see that it's possible to add and delete particular mouse gestures, that though I myself was originally going to turn off mouse gestures altogether, instead, I think I'm going to just delete some of the nuisance mouse gestures.
Like the right-click + drag down + drag right one which closes a tab, which I keep inadvertantly doing - which is really annoying when in fact I mean to do right-click + drag down to open a link in a new tab.
It looks like that guide will be helpful in figuring out how to do that. Thanks, author of this blog post, and author of that guide.
