> Opera is not spyware in any way shape or form.
Well, let's not go nutz. Opera gives one choice or the other in almost every version (unless you register):
spyware or adware.
PERIOD.
They didn't make Opera for love, they made it for money.
(Yes, yes ... I know about the early / beta Opera versions like 1.0. Obviously, Im not talking about those, because you and me arent using those, and they weren't even advanced enough to be functional, much less tricky.)
This is not to blame them, of course. The only thing I don't like is that they buried the 'spyware' connection until public pressure finally forced the issue.
