WEEKLY, bugs, phishing trip
As promised last week, here's the first build with built-in Fraud Protection. It's a very early preview of the technology, so everything is not entirely done yet, some sites actually show up wrong (silly bug with CNET sites!), and the icons are kind of ugly. Even the version number is wrong

But that's what this blog is all about: Bleeding edge. Enjoy!
Known issues:
- High CPU usage on Google maps
- UNIX - Crash when changing file handler from download dialog
- Opera will in some cases not start on upgrading. (use clean install)
Changelog:
- Improved stability
- Prevented page reload when navigating to "#"
- Fixed problem where pages showed the incorrect favicon
- Fixed problem where multimedia keyboard shortcuts would not work when Opera was focused
- Attempted to fix problems experienced on some pages when using a slow Internet connection by increasing opera:config#Network|HTTPLoadingDelayedTimeout to 60 seconds
- Fixed bug where document.body.currentStyle.height reported the wrong value
- Fixed bug where currentStyle.width was not correct if width is set by a script
- Fixed bug where 'Open all' from Widgets menu was broken
- Fixed bug where BCC header was visible to recipients in resent messages
- Fixed bug where cookies could not be removed using XMLHttpRequest
- Fixed bug where one could not log in to Gmail with "Accept only cookies for the site I visit" enabled
- Changed Mozilla ID string spoof to mimic Firefox
- Fixed bug where browser.js wasn't cached correctly
- Fixed issue where stored passwords were lost after enabling/disabling the master password
- Made IE ID string spoof as Windows on Linux/UNIX and Mac
- XMLHttpRequest didn't handle redirects
- Enabled use of the Authorization header in XMLHttpRequest
- "Save target as" and "Save to disk" now play well together
- "Save directly to" now works
- Improved error message when a dictionary isn't installed for the spelling checker
Mac-specific:
- Use the multi-line form field font in the source viewer
- When saving multiple times, use the directory saved to during the previous save operation

WEEKLY, Merlin, bugs, wii
...
First post! I guess there's a first time for everything. I know you were all very disappointed that there was no weekly last week, so we're here to surprise you with a very nice mid-weekly, which can actually load my.opera.com

.
M2 has seen several fixes these last weeks, especially in the IMAP code. If you've been suffering from a problem where IMAP stops fetching mails, please try this build and report your results. If your IMAP account keeps 'refetching' messages on startup, you might have to reset your account by deleting it and adding it again.
For those who had NTLM problems in the latest build, please enable and test it again.
We also added multi-tracker support to BitTorrent and did some small optimizations, so torrent users should test this as well.
Happy hunting!
Changelog
- Several display fixes.
- Several IMAP fixes.
- Added context menu for widget panel.
- Added always below for widgets.
- Added folders in widget panel.
- Fixes for NTLM.
- Fixed issue where having installed many many fonts could confuse opera.
- Several stability fixes.
- Fixed bug with illegal nested tables.
- Multitracker support for BT.
- BT file hash check saved in meta data file to reduce the need for
checking files on resume.
- Fixed bugs where opera re-downloads old feeds.
- added widget panel into panel customization dialog.
- Fix for larger images getting scrambled
Unix specific:
- Fixed deadkeys in input.
- Fixed installation with X.org 7.
- Stability fixes with Java applets.
