Microsoft, Opera
Yesterday I had some trouble wiht Opera. It kept crashing for no reason... now since I am a regular Weekly Tester I realise that problems like this are to be expected. But it only did that yesterday. My machine is also acting up, suffereing from slow stalls, so I decided to see if the Microsoft Error Reporting would help well here is a sceenshot of what I gave me.

Well duh I already know it was Opera that was "causing" the problem, it was what kept crashing. Who dosn't know that Opera is made by Opera Software ASA?
I was tempted to say "no tyhis wasn't helpful" but decided that "All you did was state the obvious" wouldn't help.

Opera, Thread Reaper
As you probably know Opera is being plagued by spammers. There have been a lot of bogus accounts for spamming but these have been almost eliminated. However, I am going to have disable anonymous posts in blog. If the spam problem goes away I might allow them again.

Opera
I have been rather sick over the last week so I didn't download 8212 when it came out but I have it now. It is basically like the last build but it fixes some of the spoofing problems. Specifially it can be set to automatically spoof in a certain way when you go to a specific site. It will also "mask" instead of "identify" as a specific browser. When I saw that I wanted to know what that meant so I used the
HTTP Request Viewer at
Delorie Web. I tried every spoofing option and found that "mask" is the same as "identify" only without adding the current version to the end of the string. Unfortunetly you can only "mask" option on specific sites (you have to do it one site at a time) but it does get around sites that detect the "Opera" that is added to the end of any string with the "indentify" option without using UserJS.

Fun, opera community, competitions, Opera

Ok so I actually won it a couple of days ago but I wasn't online yesterday when it was announced. I am the first winner of the "
Answer a Question, Win a Shirt" contest. I am treating it as Opera's christmas present to me. Will post more tommorow.
