That is, no ads displayed on the browser. As regards the playing of videos on Opera, I trawled through the Opera forum, and it appears that if you have Mplayerplugin installed for Firefox, you also have to install another instance of Mplayerplugin to work with Opera, so as to play videos. I must admit that I havn't tried this, as I don't wish to risk messing up playing of videos with Firefox, which work ok. If I had a spare harddrive available for testing purposes I'd probably try it. That will have to wait for another day. Nigel.
