POST search fix and several important platform specific fixes
Happy Monday! To celebrate how about a new build?
We believe we have finally fixed the POST search problem and would love to have your feed back. Additionally, we have some nice fixes for all three platforms.
The problem of Speed Dials going missing still exists in this build, though we are looking at a potential fix internally. In the mean time if you hit this issue, remember that a work around is provided here.

Please don't drop them. They are essential for people not liking anti-aliased fonts :'-(

Saw this behavior with the stable 11.11 and 11.50 builds and on WinXP and Win7.
Example
Can anyone confirm?
//Edit: If you can confirm please post it in this thread and not in the comments here.

I haven't been able to use any Next build since 1018, but even going back to that one doesn't work since this problem manifested itself.
Edit: There must be something else that I need to remove because I'm still having the same problem with this build. Less than 10 seconds after launching it's frozen and I have to force quit to get out of it.
(I reported it as DSK-338439 after the last snapshot was released.)

Change to "User mode"
Endless reload, consuming more and more memory
Return to "Author mode" for stopping.
Winxp, Vista
Please confirm

For that matter, since I'm using the 10.50 (since 3 or 4 builds ago), I always had to download it manually.

When there is scroll bar at speeddial page, restore down Opera then quickly scroll up and down in speeddial! CPU Usage goes upto 50-65% on a 3.3ghz dual core

When using multiple displays, assuming Opera is in the center, pressing ALT will open menu in the far left display instead.

and even more when using the speeddial

That is NOT a problem or whatever.
Opera's memory consumption depends on available memory and is automaticaly adapted to the system and other applications you might open or close.

I thought that there was an option in Opera somewhere which controlled this behaviour, however I cannot see it - and I certainly have not changed it.
Has anyone else noticed this?

Anyone noticed the "irony" of using an Opera icon that looks like its "Chrome" plated?

Configuring it with a "proxy.pac" IE script, causes permanent network traffic and massive memory leak! (No other prg's than Opera started - its memory usage grows up to 1.8 Gb in 20 sec!!!)
The only way for me to use Opera Next is to configure its proxy manually.
Can anybody confirm?

I use Firefox and chrome and very little memory is used compared to OPERANEXT

1. Start downloading any file.
2. When it is finished, "download completed" notification will appear.
3. Close Opera when notification is still visible.
I guess it will crash on any notification not only "download completed".
Anyone else confirm?
