  thanks.

• ra_mon20. February 2008, 15:07:22

  This release is a recommended upgrade for all those running the latest stable releases.

  
  Can you confirm that Kestrel is not affected with theses 3 security issues ?
  
  Thanks,

  Now you can move on to something really different: Get Kestrel flying

• kiaM20. February 2008, 15:16:43

  Thanks Opera ASA.
  Now I can wait for Opera 9.5 even longer...

• Rijk20. February 2008, 15:23:49

  For the curious, the build numbers of the final release are:
  Win: 8835
  Mac: 3727
  NIX: 698

• TuPLaD20. February 2008, 15:31:38

  So I'm on:
  Version: 9.50 Beta 2
  Build: 1800
  If I install this one, will it affect my mail and stuff?

• AleksOD20. February 2008, 15:54:47

  Thank you for the speedy fix!

• NoteMe20. February 2008, 15:56:07

  @TuPLaD
  
  Do not install a 9.2x version over your 9.5 builds. It will affect more stuff than you can poke a stick at, mail included

• TuPLaD20. February 2008, 15:59:28

  @NoteMe
  
  Oh, yeah! I was a bit confused with the numbers, now I get it, thanks

• AleksOD20. February 2008, 16:12:37

  Sorry, where is the changelog? I can't seem to find it...

• _BuRAk_20. February 2008, 16:38:22

  thanks, deviantart.com and facebook.com are opening faster.

• illiad20. February 2008, 16:40:38

  In case you are new, or have forgotten ***again!!!***, or lost track of it because you refuse to use the proper forum..
  (http://my.opera.com/community/forums/ )
  
  If it is a FINAL, it can go over the top of another FINAL(NOT a beta) - But check for issues, like mail changing!!
  
  If it is a weekly/alpha/beta, it can go over the top of another weekly/alpha/beta(NOT a final!) - But check for issues, like mail changing!!
  
  And note 'mileage may vary' .. if someone has got a working install, from ignoring the above, it may not work for you.. just dont start complaining later that it does not work properly... you will know why....
  

• firstnight20. February 2008, 16:52:49

  Rijk, thanks for the build numbers.

• AleksOD20. February 2008, 17:11:30

  Thanks, lamarca, just curious

• elitegeek20. February 2008, 17:37:40

  I'm happy to see the new release!
  
  
  I can't wait for 9.5

• man on the street20. February 2008, 17:50:36

  Ok - up and running!
  Just onre thing...and repeating ra_mon´s question "Can you confirm that Kestrel is not affected with theses 3 security issues ?"

• nemoxx20. February 2008, 18:02:25

  Thank you. 9.26 is much more stable on Mac. Browser is now finaly stable. I noticed no more crashes!

• Darken20. February 2008, 18:09:26

  @ra-mon (Pierre): Read this >
  

  In this case I will strongly recommend that users of Opera 9.0 to 9.25, inclusive, upgrades to the upcoming Opera 9.26 (Update: It is now available), due to be released later this week (but an RC is available). The next 9.50 weekly will also contain a fix for the problem. In particular, you should upgrade if your installation crashes when it tries to connect to an SSL/TLS/HTTPS site.

• ra_mon20. February 2008, 18:25:43

  Merci Darken
  But it seems only related to OCSP bug, not security issues...

• Darken20. February 2008, 18:34:30

  Hummm, you are right.
  
  Hummm, okay > @ Opera Team: Kestrel is not affected with theses security issues?

• zarkoh20. February 2008, 18:36:37

  1. can't get any flash content rendered on Ubuntu 7.10, just gray rectangles instead.
  2. the main menu bar doesn't show its items. need to hover with the mouse pointer over it so that the labels appear.
  
  these two issues didn't exist on 9.5 builds, but i'm on hold with those on Ubu.

  Maybe trojan plugins and threat level plugins need warnings or complete blocks, more alternate programs like alternate tiff, qt, and rm.

• Words20. February 2008, 23:53:05

  My mail/feeds are not displaying on build 8835. The tab opens when I click on a feed or mail folder in the panel but nothing loads.
  
  Just reinstalled 8833, but the same problem
  
  Update: problem solved. I recreated my Opera6.ini file

• ssuuddoo21. February 2008, 07:49:38

  1. why is the version numbering different? from 9.50 to 9.26?
  2. I upgraded to the "stable" 9.26 but my email disappeared, why?
  3. I had to switch to my old 9.5.
  
  please provide answers
  
  use LinuX-Ubuntu

• MossMan21. February 2008, 08:13:11

  @ssuuddoo
  
  1. because one is a beta in development and one is a final
  
  2. because they are different versions of the program
  
  3. because you shouldn't install 9.2 final over 9.5 betas!

• ytsmabeer21. February 2008, 08:15:32

  @ssuuddoo:9.5 is the new not released kestrel build of Opera while stable 9.26 is just one step up from 9.25.
  With kestrel(9.5) there has been changes in the mail part so you can't go back to the old 9.26

• ssuuddoo21. February 2008, 08:48:26

  @ MossMan
  @ ytsmabeer
  
  thank you both.
  
  now I see it and know all the answers I needed.
  
  ...anyway, I have changed to 9.26 - because my 9.50 used to crush a little
  
  just had to export all email things, delete the mail folder in .opera and import my email back after installing 9.26
  
  thnx
  
  >>opera is the browser with the:
  FASTEST development
  FASTEST interface (I use a looot of shortcuts and mouse gestures and do not need the buttons )
  FASTEST customization - change the look in a second
  FASTEST smilecomming on your face when U luve it!
  FASTEST EMAIL client working together with the browser
  FASTEST browsing the internet (this I personally cannot statistically say, because do not know the objective answer, but use the test results of others)
  
  thnx again

  oh n what about you guys??

• pap91121. February 2008, 16:57:45

  Thank You for 9.26
  Now I can download directly from simviation.com. At least
  
  I have freaky and iritating bug.
  When I writing something, and when I want to wrote polish letters one by one Opera opens me a new tag, eg. when I write: "s", "alt+l", "alt+o" Opera opens me a black tab (letters must be written very fast so it not happens everytime).
  Same thing with other letters. But some opens Notes Tab, some other tabs/windows I don't even couldn't name
  Problem probably only on Deviantart.com while writing a comment
  Here on Opera blog commenting I can't reproduce this bug
  
  
  Opera 9.26 (8835), WinXPSP2

• gologs21. February 2008, 23:01:57

  Please publish amd64 bin as well, atleast for stable releases.
  

• illiad22. February 2008, 00:22:26

  man on the street & the rest:
  
  which ones are you talking about??
  

• chuuey22. February 2008, 11:31:58

  thanks for the update guys, keep it up!

• emagius22. February 2008, 14:53:08

  I'm having NTLM issues with 9.26 ("portable" version) -- not present on either 9.24 or 9.25 -- where I am constantly prompted for intranet credentials. I've tried various proxy options in 9.26 but without success.
  
  On earlier versions, I don't get any prompt at all and browsing works fine.

• pikachu9723. February 2008, 14:52:57

  Opera 9.26 still has the famous bug of multi-user installations, i.e., when you install Opera on a computer that has various user accounts, only the user who installed it will have general access to it, since if you try on another user, you won't see any shortcuts to Opera in the desktop, in the Start Menu (in the case of Windows)... being the solution to open the file "opera.exe" in the folder in which Opera is installed. In the account of the user who installed Opera, you have all these shortcuts. This problem is really annoying, so I would like to ask to the Opera Desktop Team to fix this bug once and for all in Opera 9.50 or in a possible version 9.27

• ytsmabeer23. February 2008, 15:54:18

  @pikachu97:Opera always worked for me on muliple instalations.
  Try the Msi install

• bontzy23. February 2008, 18:54:13
