Sounds like a winner... I might have to check out opera. I just downloaded Trillian and am growing used to it. Lots of good alternate programs for everything!
one of the features includes 'Multiple Homepages' - so that all your favourite websites are loaded when you launch your browser instead of just one homepage,
I'm not sure if Firefox or Opera now offer this, as I am living far away from home were my equipment is and I haven't been able to keep up to date with new releases,
I have to use the local library computers that have so many restrictions I'm surprised they actually let you type, they use the Compaq Evo T20 - no CDROM or harddisk drive.
