Easy way to block ads is to disable the IFrames & JavaScript globally and enabling them in site preferences for required sites.

A frequently updated filters can be downloaded from

www.fanboy.co.nz/adblock/
pgl.yoyo.org/as/
www.technobeta.com/posts/opera-ads/
Ad Blocking FiltersetP CSS
Filterset.G User JS

Large urlfilter.ini file will increase startup time of Opera.

You will get blank page if you try to visit a site blocked by content blocker.

Optimized filter to block most ads.

Add the following under [exclude] section of urlfilter.ini file after closing Opera.

wiggy2k7 · 06-13-08

Yep thats what i wanted.....

Cheers mate, works great!

Rep+

EDIT.... is it me or does Opera seem a bit faster than Firefox ???

wigseryc · 06-13-08

My fellow VIP's... Google has a search box up top right... Is there any way i can ??change this default search to Google.co.uk ?

Edit - think i got it. No, i don't... Help!?

Nostrano · 06-13-08

I tried it and wanted it to work, but i guess I'm too stuck in my ways with Firefox, i don't know whether i am happy to have firefox or sad that i couldn't pick up and use opera like i wanted.

I can see why people like it, but i think the main turn off for me was the lack of a recognizable bookmarks toolbar like firefox has and the fact that the tabs toolbar was up at the very top

wigseryc · 06-13-08

Toolbar tab can be moved to any edge of your screen / Opera window.

Anyhows, i wa wrong about my query, i did not solve it.

Basically, one of my homeboys has this:

I however, do not have the "Manage Search Engines" option in the right-click menu... Does anybody know why? Or how i can get it?

To make google your default search provider... click on tools then preferences, then click on the search tab and double click on google. Next click on the details button and check the 'use as default search engine' box and your good to go................ You can manage all your search engines from that page!

Hope that helps
