It appeared that Opera PR had successfully reached out to all of them, shoved a news release down their throats and waited to give them the go-ahead to regurgitate it on their blogs, using the same screenshots, same content, and differing only in the pithiness of their post titles...'Chris Messina'
Part of Haavard's response:
I think we need to be reasonable here, though. Journalists and bloggers have a huge amount of information to deal with and publish. There is no way they can possibly dig deep into every single issue they are covering. While this can lead to frustrating situations at times, we need to keep in mind that we do have the power to respond to misconceptions in the media.

PC Tools has identified that cybercriminals are continuing to target major news stories and global events such as the recent release of Windows 7 and the FIFA World Cup.
Thousands of Windows 7 builds downloaded on Torrent and P2P sharing sites contain a malicious Trojan designed to target your personal information and has the potential to cause system failure and result in identity theft or financial loss for the end user.
We’re also witnessing phishing attacks targeting the 2010 FIFA World Cup™ Tournament and there’s evidence to suggest that the FIFA related attacks will continue to escalate, as demonstrated during the previous FIFA World Cup when related phishing attacks jumped by 40%.
What you should do to help protect yourself:
●.Only purchase/download products from trusted sources
●.If you've downloaded Windows 7 from a torrent site, you should use your security software to run a comprehensive scan of your computer to check for Trojans and other threats.
●.If you're not already protected, look for reputable award-winning software such as Spyware Doctor with AntiVirus and Internet Security and ensure you apply security updates regularly.
●.Avoid clicking on links sent to you via emails and instant messages even if they appear to be sent from a known or reputable source.

Following last year's success, Opera today kicks off the second year of its university tour program. The program is aimed to work closely with schools and universities across the globe to enhance learning about the Web. This semester, Opera meets the students in India, Indonesia, Taiwan, United Kingdom, Ukraine, Spain, Russia and Brazil. See the full schedule: www.opera.com/company/education/tours/.
"The university tour we kicked off last year exceeded our expectations, gathering close to 10,000 students and professors who are enthusiastic about the Web," said Jon von Tetzchner, CEO of Opera Software. "The students were actively taking part in discussions on important topics facing the future and challenges of the Web, raising relevant questions about the industry. In all, 840 students so far have joined Opera's Campus Crew program to continue the discussion on important Web issues and technologies on their campuses, as well as to network with other future industry leaders."
"The students that are seeking a degree want real life examples and want to be involved in the discussion on how to make the Web better," said Risanto Darmawan, Multimedia Lecturer at Krisnadwipayana University, Jakarta. "Students were attending Opera's Education program with great interest and are carrying Opera's initiative further by meeting in discussion groups and organizing debates on the subject matter. We are interested in the Web and want to be involved in shaping it."
This year's seminars will continue to explore topics such as the history and future of the Web, the browser industry, open Web standards, Web applications and the increasing role of mobile Web browsing in developing countries. The Opera Education program gives students a possibility to take part in Opera's representatives program and learn about internship opportunities at Opera.
In 2008, Opera's university tours were held in 89 universities in 11 countries, meeting close to 10,000 students and professors. Learn more about the program: www.opera.com/company/education/tours/
