I do like the browser though but FFox has some extensions that I really like and immediately missed in Opera, eg, the Ad suppression ad on. I have gotten so used to not seeing all the ads and headers and 'crud' from advertising in all of the web pages that when I saw them in Opera and realized how little real information is displayed due to ads taking up all the space, I need to find some equivilent mechanism in Opera before I will use it as my primary browser. Commercials/advertising is a cancer and using FFox, I can remove virtually 100% of that junk and just never see it. I am not giving up on Opera just yet, but the ad filters I get in the FFox ad ons need to have some equivilent function in Opera before it becomes my primary.
privoxy works wonders with ads and provides protection for *all* http access rather than just in ff and, from what I have seen, works better than ff's suppression. -- Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA HOG # US1244711 http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://counter.li.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
