As if trying to steal Firefox's thunder, Opera was strategically launched days before Firefox 3's Guinness Book Record opening. The lean mean browsing machine has just got a whole lot meaner and leaner, though not in download size - 6.8MB; the install size is now more than double the size of its previous iteration at 3MB, one MB short of Firefox 3 install size.

Opera 9.5 has gone through many changes with a revamped address bar (that rivals Firefox 3 Awesome Bar), better content blocking, simplified download box, and most importantly faster performance and tighter memory use. Opera has altered its looks too, with a much more Vista-ish feel 3D obsidian look.

Opera rocks! Is is one of the most lightest browsers I've ever used. CRISP is what I'd like to call.

One of the problem opera had was with saving the complete web page as seen after it has fully loaded in a browser.firefox does this with ease.dont know if this version can do that.
