I really don't think it can be 'just Opera'. Far more people would be 
having this kind of problem if it were. I think there must be some 
kind of conflict with some other program you have installed. I'm no 
expert in these matters, but the thought occurs to me that you may be 
using some other PDF reader than the Adobe program. IKf so, try 
disabling it. What program, for example, is set as the default 
program for opening PDFs? Try changing the default to Adobe to see 
what happens.
