Opera 9.5 Released

12 Jun, 2008, 7:46 pm IST | tech2 News Staff |

Opera Software today released the final public release of its flagship Web browser, Opera 9.5.


Making its desktop debut in Opera 9.5, Opera Link enables a seamless Web experience from device to device. Opera Link keeps users synchronized between any Opera 9.5 desktop browser and Opera Mini. Users can jot down anything they wish to remember in Opera 9.5, and access it on any Opera 9.5 browser by simply logging in. If users can remember a word from a page they've read earlier, they can find that page easily with Quick Find by just entering a word in the address bar to find matching text from any page they've visited.

The 'New Tab' button and other elements have been modified to make the switch to a better Web experience more intuitive. Users can select any of the platform-specific skins to help Opera's appearance adapt to their operating system of choice.

Opera's Fraud Protection not only protects from fraudulent web sites, but is also publically available. Powered by Haute Secure, Netcraft, and PhishTank, Opera's Fraud Protection technology automatically blocks offending Web pages.

Opera 9.5 includes many features Opera users are already familiar with including Speed Dial, notes, the ability to save and restore browsing sessions after one closes the browser, a trash can for accidentally closed tabs or e-mails, mouse gestures etc.

"Opera 9.5 represents the culmination of two years spent listening to our community and transforming our browser to add features and capabilities they have requested," said Jon von Tetzchner, CEO, Opera. "Opera 9.5 offers new possibilities and capabilities. It's faster, lighter and pushes us further out in front of other browsers, by blending the mobile and desktop worlds together in new and powerful ways. We invite everyone to join us as we continue to shape the way the Web will evolve."

Opera 9.5 is available for Linux, Mac and PC computers and ships in more than 30 languages with additional languages soon available.
