There might be and I noticed a few different places that could be worth checking next time but for now since the re-install did the trick I will not get into detail:
I would examine the ini files that retains the browser settings / user preferences:
C:\Program Files\Opera\profile\opera6.ini
From what I saw, the above file is where the settings of Tools > Preferences is stored in.
Tools > Appearance > Skin specifies the skin in use which might be pointing to a modified or replaced one by a baddie so it is worth examining this section too.
...and this file also:
C:\Program Files\Opera\profile\toolbar\standard_toolbar.ini

PS. Also take a look at the screenshot, Spybot offers an Opera specific plug-in protection, once Opera is installed on a system.
