Been using it for a few years now, even when running from a flash drive Opera is still faster, than IE on the machines

There's also the version on www.liberkey.com which I use all the time on my different computers. Furthermore I sync all this computers with Dropbox, like that I have all settings, mail, contentblocker, open tabs, ... of opera the same on all computers.

Hey! Opera is new on that website, last month I searched for it in the Internet category but there was only Firefox, Chrome and Seamonkey. Good they added Opera.

Instead of Opera@USB or PortableApps, I would recommend LiberKey suite. I has excellent online instalator, handy automatic updates and apps may be freely copied. What's more. LK has feature of tamporal association files with it's portable apps.

Cutting Spoonhellspork # Friday, October 8, 2010 11:49:23 PM

I'll need to check out LiberKey, but I am happy that there is finally an Opera configured to run within PortableApps. (Especially since U3 is unfortunately pretty much dead as a technology)

opera is the best browser to hit the net making it portable was the second best thing they could have done to progress the word of opera hahahahahahah!!!

Can't you use Opera Sync for that?

Yea, I did mean that. I didn't know that, really.

IsabelaIssaland # Tuesday, October 12, 2010 6:29:23 PM

Really good idea!

Charles SchlossChas4 # Wednesday, October 13, 2010 5:37:15 AM

The 10.63 update will be there I am guessing in the next few days

edit: The update to 10.63 is here

Charles Uwanzeky Okhiehechaxzeky # Wednesday, October 13, 2010 6:46:39 PM

The very best:D

vmrokr # Wednesday, October 13, 2010 7:00:57 PM

Many public places don't allow customers to install new software on their machines. That's why I have Opera @ my USB, too.

Vladimirvladrodr # Thursday, October 14, 2010 5:03:03 PM

Yes! I has been using Opera@USB since many years ago, and it's great!! better than you (firefox).

Opera Rlz!!!

this zip file causes fire wall to activate, any Opera version may be dragged to any device, y bother with zip file with unknown contents that make firewall go crazy?

could be some policy with the firewall and zip files

National Voice Gazettejavamanmonk # Monday, October 18, 2010 4:11:50 PM

maybe so, I run firewall in paranoid mode, it lite like a christmas tree, still no real need to zip opera, small footprint to begin with. Years ago, zips made sense for speed on dial up.

James BondFOOKUG # Sunday, October 24, 2010 8:14:08 AM

my only complaint is that it will not work compatabily as I build web sites and opera states

Not supported

Internet Explorer 5.5 is not supported anymore. Please upgrade to a higher version.

and I deleted internet explorer because It sucks...
but then again google chrome says the same thing opera still #1 though:confused:

Cutting Spoonhellspork # Sunday, October 24, 2010 7:20:25 PM

Makes no sense. Check your site preferences for the page, Opera may work if set to pretend Firefox.
