- Good news

- I use Opera a lot, but it is still very buggy. Still having problems at www.launch.com when viewing streams. The application crashes like a big dog.. Tried it on my 3 computers.

- I'm checking out Mozilla Firebird now, but honestly I've gotten really used to using Mouse Gestures for BACK and FORWARD... I miss them already (been using MF for all of 5 minutes)...

- Looks like MouseGesture extension doesn't work, either... and uh, where's the scrollbar? Why is there no option to turn it on/off?

Opera was the first browser to introduce a multiple document interface (MDI), making it possible to surf in several windows at once. Now Opera further advances this feature by introducing an "Undo" functionality. If users now close a window by mistake, it's easy to recall by referring to the "Closed" window history list now added to the menu or using a keyboard shortcut, Ctrl+Z. Kiosk mode is reintroduced with Opera 7.21, as was previously implemented in Opera 6. Kiosk mode is a customizable browser setting to limit functionality, blocking menus, preventing downloads, or adjusting other system preferences. Opera's kiosk mode is the most secure way to restrict access appropriate for computer labs, libraries and other kiosk providers.
Fast releases on major platforms are made possible by Opera's unique browser development process. The browser is no longer made for one platform and then ported to others. Rather the whole development process is now independent of platform from the beginning. All feedback and fixes are made in Opera's platform independent core, then made available to the rest of Opera's platforms based on the adaptation needed for the specific platforms. As a result, the Linux version can now be released along with the Windows version.
All platforms benefit from this improved development process. At the same time, the popularity of Opera's desktop versions also guarantee that products such as Opera's Smartphone browser can access Web sites all over the Web, thanks to the millions of users of Opera's desktop versions who are constantly stress-testing the browser.
Version 1.3.10.1: 2003 10 13- workaround for "block startcode errors" with some drives (Pioneer 120S, Plextor PX-116A, TEAC DV-516E)
- fixed lockup while writing leadout in some configurations (mostly NEC 1300A writers)
- improved accuracy of speed control
- language updates
