An easy way to test it is to download the same song twice under two different aliases and check the md5 sums of each. If they are different then there is something which they are changing across every song, most probably what the GP mentioned.
it is somehow linked with Microsoft Anti-Spyware causing massive PC lag everytime I started [sic] the Opera browser
What do you mean by saying it linked with Anti-Spyware? Perhaps it was taking so long to start because you are running a laptop (they often have slow 5400RPM HDDs) and because you have active antivirus and active antispyware running in the background. If this is the case, it is no fault of Opera.
I remember a few months ago there was a new article slashed that stated that Microsoft purchased the rights to Opera
That was a false rumor
As for now I will be staying with FireFox. Closed Sourced browsers continually begin to scare me
Ahh, so I suppose you have gotten the source code for Firefox and inspected it to ensure its integrity?
my favourite new feature in Opera 9 has to be the 'create search' function to easily create new search engines for Opera to use (and to use in the search dropdown)
It was also possible to do that with Opera 8 by editing an ini file. There is a simple program that makes it even easier.
What? What you just described was completely flashy and serves absolutely no functional purpose whatsoever.
it's not [...] trying to create a 'new 3d browsing paradigm' or some such silliness
So rather than making something more fuctional or doing something in a new, better way, you would instead just make things look like they are being done in a better way.
But the question is: Did they file this patent so they could sue the pants off Microsoft et al. Or, did they file the patent just for protection against a suit?
You just hit the nail on the head. If gamers shoot people in the face, why is it that there are hundreds of millions of gamers and only a handful of them have murdered someone...let alone by shooting them in the face.
He said that all people who shoot someone in the face are either hitmen or gamers. He did not say that all gamers will shoot someone in the face.
Offtopic: This new layout sucks; When I read a comment I have to bring my eyes all the way to the other side of the screen to see what it has been moderated as. Is there anyway to go back to the classic version?
Arg. Should have previewed: here's the formatted version

Well, before this I had not blocked Google ads because they were not annoying and didn't waste much bandwidth. Now they have switched to video they can welcome themselves to my HOSTS file.
"Other then game studios tied to official developer licenses, we'd like to see various individuals participate in content creation for the PS3."
That should be "other than".
I think this would be a good move for Sony. I would definitely reconsider purchasing the console if I could run linux on it and I think many other people would reconsider too. $599 isn't too bad for a console+linux PC.
There is a longer more detailed video at http://www.pqhp.com/cmp/gdctv/ . scroll about 4/5 down on the page. The video is just over an hour long; I'm not sure if it shows more gameplay or not.
How is this any different than the Wireless Zero configuration that comes with Windows XP? It seems that they all offer the same thing except the Windows Wireless Zero is already on the machine.
Doesn't it usually take longer to launch it in other countries because tranlastion has to be done to all of the games?
If it is launched simultaneously in all countries then Nintendo is going to have even more work to do before launch... hopefully the translation doesn't get shoddy (we wouldn't want another "All your base")
version 1.2 has been approved by the Mozilla admins
Don't all the extensions that are put on that site have to be approved by the Mozilla admins? If so, I'm pretty sure they would have at least glanced over the source...

Just thought I would let you know that Windows 2000 (OS which the GP is running), does not have msconfig.

I'm glad they finally released; I'm looking forward to it.
However, I am weary of all these new features; it seems like it is possible they could turn Opera into a bigger resource hog.

Does this mean Google and Microsoft will now form a broad partnership to take on their new, consolidated, streamlined enemies?

Nope, both people have to reside in the United States/Canada
I read somewhere that you need to pay an activation fee of $10 USD. Is this true?

I didn't know anyone still used Windows 1.0

What are you referring to in your post?
How do people type on a computer with Japanese? The language has 7000+ characters... that has to be one large keyboard
