369770 2005-07-05 23:05:00 I have just installed Opera 8.01 & find that there is a file "Netscape.exe" in the Opera/Program folder.
It doesn't seem to do anything if you double click it.
Any idea what its for?

369771 2005-07-05 23:51:00 I too have just installed Opera 8.

It imported bookmarks fine, it also imported all my emails from Thunderbird.

It dosent want to know about my contact list :confused:

The help site says it will, just go File - Import, but when I did this the only option I get is to import an Opera address book *.adr

You Opera fans never told me it will handle my mail as well, would have tried it out eariler :p

369772 2005-07-06 00:07:00 $39 USD?

For a browser?

Can probally buy XP for that amount.

Or 50 million copies of Firefox

Or 50 million copies of Linux

Or a keyboard adaptor for a Mac..... :blush:

369773 2005-07-06 00:15:00 Meh, Damn thing crashed while importing my accounts from outlook express. Couldn't handle me refusing to enter the passwords.

Hate the adverts to death already.

Seems there are commercial bookmarks I can't remove.

Still, Seems pretty slick, I,ll give her a week and see if I bother to use it.

369775 2005-07-06 00:17:00 Its adware.

Firefox is free.

369776 2005-07-06 00:18:00 I just deleted those bookmarks.

Just go to Bookmarks - Manage

You have to empty the opera folder first then you can remove it.
