MegaUpload.com Files can't be downloaded

Im using Opera since a long time and I always forgot to mention that one site never worked.

Im talking about megaupload.com , its a one-click filehoster like rapidshare, very popular at all.

After short waiting period of 30 Seconds the Download never starts, I don't have this Problems on IE, Chrome or FFx.

Im using 10.52 Build 3363, but as I mentioned before, this Problems seems to be on all Opera versions.

Example Download: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=M16USR1P

Clicked on your link and it worked fine.
The download in question was Opera_10.52_3363_in.exe
Just in case you doubt my saying so. smile
Opera 12.16 build 1860 Windows Vista Premium SP2

Works for me too. Note that if you try to cheat using CSS (unhiding the download link prematurely) it will just ask me for a 4 digit code again - is this similar to what you are having?

Also, blocking popups might be an issue. I haven't exactly tried, but I use MegaUpload regularly as it has been the best DDL service for a while, and the first download of a session often gives me a popup. The download doesn't appear until after I swap back to the MU tab. I also haven't heard of this issue from other Opera users I know, so I am fairly sure it's an issue on your end.

If you download stuff often, I'll suggest downloading JDownloader(.org). It's a great open source program designed exactly for these DDL sites. Portable version exists, if desired. I won't recommend it if you only download once in a while though.

Thanks guys for trying it out,

Its really strange that its just not working with Opera for me.
after captcha and waiting period, its just not starting and after, say 5 minutes, i get an error page.
I don't cheat and I know this poker Pop-Up opens too and for sure I swap back to main download site.

No problems on IE, Chrome, FFx and JDownloader (yea Islys, I love that program too and I use it for some month now)
