My apologies, let me describe my experience with it further:

In Opera 9.1, loading and executing the url produces an addition to the
address:

/error_msg/unknown_browser.cfm

The "Unknown or Untested Browser/Operating System Combination" page opens.

Clicking the "Text Only Version" hyperlink produces an "Object Instantiation
Exception" dialog box.

Clicking the "Enter the full graphic version (Internet Explorer comp. mode)
and (mozilla comp. mode") hyperlinks produces the web page, but also with the
misaligned top nav as you also see it.

Opened OK using Opera 9.1 for me. The top nav is a bit misaligned though.
