I use opera, no problems. Are you using a desktop shortcut? Maybe the shortcut is messed up. Navigate to the programs/opera folder and double click on the opera.exe directly. If that works ok, then get rid of your opera short cuts and make a new one.

thx but i already tried that do i downloaded firefox and it works fine but i want my opera back :( cant seem to get any news over the internet either. my friend thought it could be a trojan horse but i checked my computer with my avg antivirus and it found nothing

try Malewarebytes' antimalware, it finds stuff that others don't find. it helped me in the past!

..and we don't want to lose another opera user :D

i hope it solves the problem if it is really a virus or trojan

 

 



“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

Boo ignorant Opera haters. I use Opera, Firefox, and Chrome regularly and Opera is my clear favorite, the only problem with it is that no one else uses it, so some websites don't fully support Opera (see: websites that use Move Networks' streaming media player). It's a shame because I'd love it if my friends all used Opera Unite. Opera has also been a browser leader for many innovations.

As for fixing your problem, I'd suggest checking your system's restore points to check for any unusual changes. Also, check msconfig's startup tab for any files/folders that you don't recognize, AVG doesn't pick up every virus out there.

Oh, there's a relly quick solution to this problem. One of my friends encountered the same thing.

Why settle for less if we can use Opera?
