Opera not working on most sites (XP)
Recently, my Opera browser on my netbook just doesn't work with many sites. My Google home page doesn't load at all. Google Maps loads as if my netbook were a mobile phone. Buttons on most sites don't function. I didn't have the latest version of Opera, so I uninstalled the version I had and installed 11.51 . This has not helped at all. I'm not having these problems with Internet Explorer.I would appreciate any help to avoid reverting to IE!

Might be time to do some malware scans.
F-Secure: Free online tools
Trendmicro: Free online virus scan

If you had turbo enabled before and didn't remove your profile after you uninstalled Opera, it'd still be enabled after installing 11.51.

+1
Sometimes turbo adds incompatiblity to some websites

I have experienced the same. Suddenly many JavaScript based tools disappear on some tabs on Opera 11.52 for Windows XP. For example here on forum comments 'Quick Quote' no longer works. And this may happen right in the middle of the session. Only way to fix it is close the non-working tab or restart browser. Trying to toggle site preferences for JavaScript does not help.

I have Turbo disabled all the time.
