    Opera already knocks IE and firefox into a cocked hat. This update will increase it's superiority.

    I tried out opera once and I found its interface to be cluttered and it just seemed like a bulky program. Besides with all the extensions firefox has does opera really have many if any advantages?

    opera... bulky... does not compute

    firefox seems way more bulky to me, i guess its the way you approach and understand it.

    Does it have an equivalent to the adblock extension? Yes I'm aware it does block pop-ups but what about blocking ads?
