Download Opera 10.0 build 1679

A new development version of the web browser Opera was released on Friday. Opera is free to use and includes features like tabbed browsing, a popup blocker, and an email program with spam filter. New in this release is that the thumbnail tabs can now also be placed on the side and several improvements have been made to Opera Unite, which means that it can no longer work with older builds.
