Now on to the security. I visited a web site after someone told me about Ruby Reds. I was considering ordering some. Following are screenshots of the web page taken in Firefox, Internet Explorer, and Opera. A picture is worth a thousand words. Click on the images to see them in a full page.
Here's what Firefox reported:

Look at Internet Explorer:
Now, let's take a look at Opera:
I could go on and on about the benefits of Opera. After seeing this, if you are interested in getting Opera, please click on the download box in the upper right corner of my blog. If you would like to learn more about Opera, you can also do that by clicking on the download box.
Have a great and SAFE day!

As you probably know, I have Opera. CNET.com had recommended it as a free download a while back and I jumped all over it.
The sad thing is I still don't know how to use it to its fullest. I can't remember exactly what the problem was, but one day I got so frustrated with it that I went back to Firefox. Firefox is my default, but I have issues with it as well. It will not open myspace.com!?! But the thing that really sticks in my craw is that some sites will not open for me in Firefox or Opera.
Case in point: I have to visit one site everyday, multiple times per day, to gather home sales data for my work. I.E. is the only browser that navigates through it. I spoke to the web designers and they said it's designed that way. They wrote all the browser codes specifically for I.E. and nothing else will work. So, I'm stuck using three. ARGHHHHH!!!
Regarding site safety, I'm running a couple of security suites that prevent me from going to the "suspect" sites. They stop the sites from downloading if either one discovers a security issue.
Usually when Opera won't open a site, or renders it badly, it is how the code that was written, and not the browser. You can "hide" Opera's identity, making web pages see it as IE or Firefox. That particular function works most of the time. The way to do that is explained here:
