Opera 10 maintains the program’s tradition of striving for the fastest, smallest, and most full-featured browser available. Opera 10 unveils an impressive number of new design elements, although some are more pretty than practical.
Opera covers the basics with tabbed browsing, mouse-over previews, a customizable search bar, advanced bookmarking tools, and e-mail and chat clients amongst many more other nifty features.
There are hundreds of Opera reviews available on the web, so this post will not focus on that.
I have been using opera for a long time, though only for browsing. And I must say that it has been a good experience. For a long time I have been looking for a method to disable the mail client and IM client from loading as I never use them. Unfortunately opera does not provide the option to disable them from the interface itself. but after some exhaustive search using google, I came across a forum post Opera-Users mailing list (http://list.opera.com/pipermail/opera-users/2001-April/004059.html) and was I not happy .. 🙂
So below is the method to disable the email, news and IM clients from Opera.
Open the opera.ini (or operaprefs.ini) file and add the below 3 lines under the [user prefs] section.
Show E-mail Client=0 Show News Client=0 Show IM Client=0
Remember to exit opera first before editing the file, or else your changes will be overwritten once the browser is closed. Once the lines have been edited, save it and open Opera. Click on tools and you will see the option `Mail and Chat Accounts` has been disabled.
Happy Browsing .. !

My computer has had a horrible virus for at least a week. Instead of taking it to a repair shop, my dad bought me mcafee. Today I installed it and it took about 6 hours. But now when I type in my password for my profile, it acts like it will log me in but then it goes back to the log in screen where the different profiles are listed. I have windows xp. What should I do I’m starting to lose hope.

Google in general is very bad about this. Google Reader awyals shows up as mobile version unless you do the user-unfriendly URL hack. What’s worse, for me anyhow, is any URL I click in Gmail or Reader goes through their transcoder. I have to scroll to the bottom and click the link saying “HTML version” (but this page IS in HTML), before seeing the real page. Every time. For years.
Me and my friend were arguing about an issue similar to this! Now I know that I was right. lol! Thanks for the information you post.

[…] Thunderbird and Google talk. I have mentioned how to disable these features in an earlier post (Click Here). Anyhow I have been using the latest version (10.53) for a little bit of time now and I have to […]
I appreciate you for giving such a informative portal. Your site is not just informative but also very creative too. We find very few people who are capable of write not so easy stuff that creatively. we look for information on something like this. I Myself went over several websites to find information about this. I will check back often!!
Ohh and also thanks for informing us about the latest Opera release.
UC Browser defaults to fintitg sites to the screen and unlike Opera Mini the fit to width mode works with all sites including mobile ones. The full desktop “zoom” mode renders sites pretty badly though so I always use UC with fit to width enabled. For basic use UC is about as user friendly as Opera Mini although there are some real head scratchers in the settings menu and some badly translated from Chinese text in various menus.
Howdy, i read your blog occasionally and i have a similar site to your one and i was just wondering if you get a lot of spam comments? If so how do you prevent it, any plugin or anything you can advise? I get so much lately it’s driving me mad so any assistance is very much appreciated.
@Marlylyn
Well you could use a plugin such as akismet or simply use captcha
