Many files are downloaded like text
Please make that files are loaded as files rather than text!!Already tired of download through the right mouse button
In recent versions of almost all the files beginning to open text ...or proposed to save the file as htm but it rar (etc)

Yes... This is known, very annoying problem... It does seem to be related to redirects not working properly... If there's a link pointing at some RAR or 7Z or EXE or DLL or even ZIP - everything is just fine, but if it's some kind of a "download page (your download will begin shortly, if not click this link)"; or hidden AJAX-style PHP-script redirector - Opera goes through redirect and either opens file as text or asks you to save it as an HTML file...
It's like MIME type is ignored if the link is obtained through redirect...
