Still trying to work out the mail/filters business. Just moving the  
..\mail folder over didn't help.

If you type 'about:opera' on the location(address) bar you get to see  
where some things are in the opera you're using. BUT where that info is is  
a secret I have yet to learn. I would like to point version 10 to the  
folder(s) holding version 9.xx's mail. Hopefully the filters will show up  
too.

This is the only problem I have run into so far.


As I said below Opera 10 makes the Flash pages for Facebook work. But  
having two versions of a browser is a bit annoying.

And... if anyone at Opera is reading this... Is there a 64bit version in  
the works? I have both versiions of IE 32bit and 64bit) and the later out  
shines the former which gives me hope for a similar improvement for opera  
(I hope).
