Opera - new alpha version brings untold pleasures...or something like that.
housetier:
Thank you Dirhael! :Thmbsup:
This simple trick worked, I deleted ~/.opera/mail and started kestrel. And lo and behold: it didn't even open the convert dialog! :D

I just did a fresh install of this alpha program and must say i am impressed!
The history search integrated into url addressbox is just fantastic!
Also, the browser doesn't feel like an alpha program at all.
No errors coming around anywhere.
Who knows! I may have to change my default browser (FF)!
nontroppo:
For anyone who likes search keyword shortcuts and the new history search — note you can even make a search keyword for the historysearch; lovely integration of features:

So, for example I can now press:
F2 > hs elephant
and I can search for *any* web page I visited that contained the word elephant. The advantage over the address bar (just typing F8 > elephant) is that opera:historysearch has more detail and focusses just on indexed pages.

@nontroppo,
That's a good tip!
Set up a link for it on my personal bar.
Now if i can find someway to make ImageShack work with Opera...
Anyway, Opera is ... well... almost 100% my default browser.
Do like Firefox. It's hard to choose between these two. They're both excellent browsers but i must say Opera's latest alpha is truly innovative. Something we haven't seen in the last couple of years.

What exactly is the Imageshack issue? I don't use it but worked fine when I tried:

Tested using the web site and with the bookmarklet button too: http://www.codeminders.com/imageshack/shackit/
