bit of a pity, I liked the fact it was a different engine to IE & FF.

the few times a tried it, I never though it was slow.

Backup now & backup often.

The problem with opera never was speed it was the fact that it didn't render pages the same as other browsers. I always thought certain pages didn't work right with opera(a lot of times had to due with drop down boxes on shopping sites, ect.)

I had stopped using it many years ago (maybe 10 years) because it would refuse to load some sites, and after trying numerous versions for several years I completely gave up on it.

So interesting follow-ups

I believe opera is doing this so they can keep 1-code-set across all devices (PC,MAC, Linux, iOS, Android, ChromeOS,Windowsphone8, etc) as webkit works in (and runs the main browsers for) most PhoneOS' (save mozilla's firefox-OS which I assume still runs as gecko)

ADVICE FOR USING CCleaner'S REGISTRY INTEGRITY SECTION

DON'T JUST CLEAN EVERYTHING THAT'S CHECKED OFF.

Do your Registry Cleaning in small bits (at the very least Check-mark by Check-mark)

ALWAYS BACKUP THE ENTRY, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU'LL BREAK IF YOU DON'T.
