Description

by Opera Software

Opera makes browsing a great pleasure with advanced navigation. Open a new tab and your favourite sites are just a click away. You're also much safer with Fraud Protection, powered by GeoTrust and PhishTank. With nearly immediate identification of suspected phishing sites access, you can feel more secure. Phishing is a form of online fraud in which a malicious party convinces users to visit a forged Web site and divulge personal information, credit card numbers and bank account details. Cutting-edge widgets - small and handy Web programs - make everyday browsing fun and useful by bringing a variety of Web content and data right to your desktop. You can play games, get organized, follow your favorite sports teams and more. Widget developers can create widgets using open and common Web standards including JavaScript, CSS, HTML and SVG and technologies like AJAX. For more information about using or making widgets, visit widgets.opera.com. Opera strives to ensure you can be as efficient online as you want. Whether by pioneering the earliest form of tabbed browsing in the first Opera browser or allowing you to add your favorite search engines to the search bar in Opera, we give you the tools to stay organized online. Features such as saved sessions, the trash can, notes and the ability to start exactly where you last closed Opera keep you productive. strengthening Opera's pop-up blocker to weed out annoying or malicious pop-ups, Opera gives you new options for safe browsing. In Opera you can express your style with a mouse click. You can change the look and feel of your browser by downloading new skins or altering buttons to suit the way you want to use Opera. Opera even lets you improve how individual sites behave or block advertisements. It's your choice.
