Prior to instal I had been able to open a folder, any folder, and then click on favourites and then choose any link and surf straight to that page. I remember when I installed Opera that it asked if it could be my default browser, I thought why not, I have been using Opera for over a year now anyway and since then I can no longer surf the net via a folder. Even if I type the address or another address the "page cannot be displayed" comes up. I figured I would uninstal Opera and all would be ok, but no same thing. I am not sure if the problem is related to Opera or not but I would like some help if anyone knows. I have looked at the folder options via control panel and reset defaults. I can click on IE and surf no problem, only when I open a folder is there a problem with surfing. sam m XP pro, IE6 (default browser) and now (reinstalled) Opera 7.01.	sam m (517)
