why would you be morally opposite to 'Opera with that advertising crap' when
the vast majority of web sites have ads all over them?
Even your link has an ad on that page. I'm just curious. Of course you can
pay for Opera and get ride of the ads. But I would guess that would be more
oppositional that having ads :)
