Opera browser...get it!

it loads the pages really quick and it also tells you the speed at which you connect to a page and also downloads files and pictures quicker too.


BUT i`ve saved a lot of pictures whilst using opera....WHERE THE FECK DOES IT STORE THEM???????????????????????????????????????

Opera seems to default to 'my documents'. Where that is depends on your version of Windoze.

Win2k\XP should be something like c:\documents and settings\%username%\my documents

Can't remember where ME/98/95 put it

HTH

nah, it doesnt put them there, some some reason

Have a look in File|Preferences|Programs and Paths

Should tell you the download directory there.

I use it

Makes you realise what a piece of bloatware IE is.

I tried to use it and gave up. There were just too many sites that didn't work properly in it. Also it seemed a bit buggy. Not as bad as Netscape, but still pretty bad. :( Ie may be bloated, but at least it works most of the time...

Tried it, hated it, back to I.E.


:D

I've never had a single problem with Opera - you are using the most recent version aren't you ?

You'll find IE bends a lot of HTML rules, so that certain code works on IE but not on Netscape, Opera, etc...

Admittedly it was a while ago since I used it properly (other than for work) so it may have improved since then. Didn't work well with my online banking at all though. It's sad, but a lot of sites out there use those bent rules that are in ie...

These incompatibilities are a real pain. Part of my job is coding web applications, and getting them too look the same in all common browsers can be a real problem sometimes...
