1) example.com:8080 type urls don't work without appending http://
2) microsoft msdn is very broken, about 50% chance of page load (not sure about msdn2, the tree always loads tho)
Also, is there a way to turn off the rss system?

the imap fetch problem is supposedly fixed (haven't tested it yet), but it sounds similar to the problem i'm having with pop gmail.
thanx! yesterdays weekly was amazingly better than last weeks, and this is better than yesterday's so, Opera Team, i think you're on the right track
thanx again.

I will try to catch what site (from my 30+) provokes memory leak...
Rijk # 12. May 2006, 19:43
The QA people will get quite upset with the developers if the latter would continue adding features! Some very minor things (like up/down for the search engines) might get in, but basically everything should be done at this point. Widgets UI looks reasonably OK now, though usability comments are of course always welcome.
Bug fixes are still coming in of course - otherwise we wouldn't be talking 'beta', but 'final'.
[1] Dreaming about 9.0, that is. The developers will of course not go on a permanent holiday after 9.0 goes final. Either 9.1 or 10.0 is the next step.

When I turn off JavaScript there all down to normal.

I had a lot of problems with Opera using incredible amount of memory and finally with Opera freezing and not responding even without any tab open. After a clean install everything works fine now. Therefore I assume there might be a problem with updated weeklys.
I think it would be very interesting to know whether the problems still exist on a clean install?
On Windows the classic installer should allow to have the same version of Opera in a new or empty folder (msi installer allows only repair and remove for the same version).
@FatalL: with http://3dnews.ru working set memory raises very slowly (<10K/Sec) and for a longer time with me but this stopped after few minutes, virtual size is stable all the time.
@Operandme: Using Pandora in this weekly the memory consumption is much less now - maybe because of the new daily/weekly or because of my clean install (of the last weekly). Pandora uses Flash and I had the same problem with other Flash-pages but not with other widgets, so it has been probably been a problem with Flash.
@Opera developers: The "Add" button in widgets panel reuses existing tab - it should open a new tab (using shift+click is not what I'm thinking of).

(for the test you can use a second same version Opera, on windows you need the classic installer).

Memory usage is stable after 4-5 sec and go down after closind 3dnews.ru

"We trained hard but it seemed that every time we were
beginning to form into teams, we would be reorganized. I was
to learn later in life that we tend to meet any new situation by
reorganizing. And what a wonderful method it can be for
creating the illusion of progress while producing inefficiency,
confusion and demoralization." -- Gaius Petronius Arbiter,

Hmmm... checked it later and the site is no longer crashing ... something about that site was a problem earlier, though .... I couldn't restart where I left off unless I quickly closed that page each time ....

Enable NTLM. Try accessing sites starting with https. It crashes/hangs the browser.
Other things look quite OK.
Ahui886 # 13. May 2006, 04:14
I hope this build can fix the bug that can not open the links in Feeds.
sadly to say this bug is also exist!

This time copying opera.jar file back from my opera backup did not solve the problem. I had to remove Opera and do a clean install.
Doing a clean install is not a big problem but you will loose all (site level) settings, Bookmarks etc.
I think that Opera still has some work to do with Opera.jar
