i like the look of it but it always feels bloated.

i would like to try opera but would like to know if this has an add blocker?

cheers

It does. Right-click on a page and select the 'Block content' option. Whatever Opera is able to block will be shown and you just click on it to block it. Opera then a red banner with the words 'Content blocked' over the item you've just blocked.

You can also download a beefed up adfilter.ini that needs to be put in the Opera folder where the default adfilter.ini is located. The beefed up version blocks a heck of a lot more stuff than the default.

Where Is this file you speak of? My Google skills fail me

There's this one I've just found. It may not block everything but it should block a lot and you can add your own stuff that you want blocked.

Either that or email me at my trust address and I'll send you my copy.

This could be the one I have. http://members.chello.nl/b.kroonspecker/opera/filter.ini

Looks like its called filter.ini and not adfilter.ini?
