Re: Cannot access IPv6 sites

To answer my own question: it looks Opera tries to use IPv6 to connect 
to an IPv6/IPv4 website when it is running on an IPv6 enabled system. I 
don't know if that is the RFC compliant but it is also not very 
intelligent because "IPv6 enabled system" does not necessarily mean 
"IPv6 connectivity actually available".

So in essence that leads to the typical "Internet Explorer and Firefox 
can open the web site. Opera can't. Opera is crap" kind of conclusion.

I think Opera should follow the pragmatic Firefox and IE behaviour and 
thus make life for the Opera users easier.
