Good onyer both....
The update did do a curious thing for me........when I shut down the updated browser there were four extra Opera desktop shortcuts on the desktop...which refused to be deleted...."access denied"........however, the next time I opened/closed Opera, there were only three.....and so forth until they had all disappeared.
Odd....
.......but no harm done and it is working like a dream.
Jazz, if you do not want your experience to happen again, tools>preferences>advanced>security and set the update mode to your chosen option such as "notify me of available update" or "do not look for updates".............then you won't be caught by surprise..
