Me  too,  just now: no spyware anywhere. BUT, I am a longtime Opera user
and have just updated my registered 4.02 version.

Hi dierkhaasis,

On 12 December 2000 at 20:38:46 +0100 (which was 19:38 where I
live) Dierk Haasis wrote and made these points:

DH Yes, no activity during update on my ISDN, not even tried to connect.

It's  got  to be said. The thread's gone long and deep. It hasn't been
about TB for a long while so let's take it off-list now folks.

Good news. Perhaps they really don't do a full spyware install if you
are already registered. Can anyone verify that they don't contact the
'registration server' during the install?

Thanks,

Re: OT: Re: news lists Opera

2000-12-11 Thread Douglas Hinds


Hello ztrader  other fellow TB! Users following this thread,

Sunday, December 10, 2000,  you stated:

z Opera is now spyware.

To which Allie responded:

ACM It would therefore seem that if you're a registered Opera 4
ACM user, the adware is not installed. I installed version 5 on top
ACM of my registered version 4.

Then I asked:

DH I wonder if the same would be true for my registered version 3.6x?

Meaning, whether the ads go away on installing version 5 on top
of my registered version 3.6x.

However, you replied

z My understanding is that this is new with ver 5 only.

You mean the ads. But I meant the behavior (no ads if installed over
a registered Opera 4 - or maybe earlier). However, at this point I
believe that I'd have to pay for an upgrade in order to get rid of
the ads.

In any case, I think I'll wait for the next version (the one that
hopefully corrects the current Opera 5's bugs).

Now - to tie this in w/ TB!: When I double click on an url contained
in a message, Opera opens (if closed) and navigates there (either
way).

DH

OT: Re: news lists Opera

2000-12-10 Thread Douglas Hinds



Hello Allie  other fellow TB! Users following this OT thread,

Sunday, December 10, 2000,  you stated regarding Opera:

z Opera is now spyware. See alt.privacy and alt.privacy.spyware and

z see also http://accs-net.com/smallfish/cydoor.htm

ACM As a registered Opera user:

ACM I see no references to Cydoor in my registry settings ...

ACM I also ran 'Ad aware' on my system and it found no Opera related
ACM spyware. http://www.lavasoft.de/aaw/index.html

ACM I again have come up with a clean system. I had previously run Optout
ACM which came up with a clean system.

ACM It would therefore seem that if you're a registered Opera 4 user, the
ACM adware is not installed. I installed version 5 on top of my registered
ACM version 4.

I wonder if the same would be true for my registered version 3.6x?

Douglas
