| 157122 | 2003-07-03 01:21:00 | I'm trying to load Opera 7.11 off the disk and have deleted ver. 6.01 but I can't get it to load. The disk opens up Internet Explorer and when I go to "Browsers" and then down to Opera and click on "open folder here" it just comes up with..... Cannor find Server. No page to display. Even read the instructions. Am I doing something obviously wrong? I have loaded stuff from cd's before (though not all that often) and ususally it's straghtforward. Thanks m?:|c |

The default skin takes up rather a large amount of screen real estate so making its icons smaller or obtaining a smaller skin makes quite a difference to how much you can fit onscreen as does your arrangement of icons. |

| 157128 | 2003-07-03 12:36:00 | Opera 7 is brilliant. Dozens of skins are available, mine looks like XP IE6. One of the best features is, press F12 & you will find 3 settings for 'pop ups'. Accept, Block, & Accept by Invitation. This is brilliant as it does not interfere with downloads, links, graphics etc, but keeps all the 'appendage extension' adds out ;-) Don't forget that 'F11' toggles a full screen & Z=Back. It will also delete all Cookies before closing, if you wish. |
