It now includes a similar config to Firefox's.

Type in opera:config in Opera. You get the prefs etc.

Some changes

Enhanced pop-up blocker to detect more unwanted pop-ups.

Added new message console for warnings and error messages.

Added opera:config for managing preferences.

'Find' feature now highlights all matches when searching for text on the page.
Added internal source viewer. Set 'Source viewer' preference to 'Opera' to use the internal source viewer. On new installs, the internal source viewer is enabled by default.

Implemented tab locking. Right click on a tab and select 'Lock tab'. Individual tabs cannot be closed while they are locked.

New bookmark icon in address bar.

Fix to prevent key presses being lost after using Alt+Tab.

Updated search.ini

The file version number is now 7. All files with lower version numbers will be overwritten on upgrade.

New shortcut 'a' for searching with answers.com.

Changed keyboard shortcuts for closer cross-browser compatibility:

Ctrl+T replaces Ctrl+N for opening a new tab.

Ctrl+N opens a new browser window.

Ctrl+D and Ctrl+Shift+D replace Ctrl+T and Ctrl+Shift+T, respectively, for adding pages to bookmarks.

Ctrl+Shift+V can be used instead of Ctrl+D for paste-and-go.
