Silj,

Thank you again.

It seems that SpywareBlaster does not offer any specific protection to
the Opera browser but, as it does not appear to consume any machine
resources of note, I will keep it in place and continue to update it
for the rare occasions that I use Firefox or IE to view websites that do
not render correctly in Opera.

I am indeed well obliged to you for your help/advice on this matter.
