nov1 Posted March 7, 2017 ID:1106947 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Hi there, So I'm currently using Google Chrome as my main web browser, but recently I've been considering trying out Opera as my main browser instead. Do you guys think it would be worthwhile for me? Many thanks! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firefox Posted March 9, 2017 ID:1107289 Share Posted March 9, 2017 As mentioned its a matter of choice... I myself don't like Chrome, but I do enjoy using Opera... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nov1 Posted March 10, 2017 Author ID:1107667 Share Posted March 10, 2017 (edited) Cheers for your replies. May I kindly ask for a recommendation on which web browser is the most 'secure' in regards from potential exploit attempts? Thank you Edited March 10, 2017 by nov1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David H. Lipman Posted March 11, 2017 ID:1107671 Share Posted March 11, 2017 It's not the Browser. It is the person behind the Browser. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sman Posted March 11, 2017 ID:1107783 Share Posted March 11, 2017 You can't have your cake and eat it too.. Ir's a mine field out there and nothing foolproof. Even popular sites are vulnerable and risky.. So, learn to live with the risks and get the best out of the web.. Good luck.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kat405 Posted March 11, 2017 ID:1107858 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Based on personal experience I don't advise it. I installed Opera Browser on 3/2/17 and have been unable to access the update server since that time even after uninstalling Opera. If anyone here has any suggestions to remedy the problem it would be greatly appreciated. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sman Posted March 11, 2017 ID:1107870 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Try re-installing older version and un-installing using good uninstall tool, which can remove all traces and try fresh install of latest version .. though, I hav'nt used there r tools which can monitor all registry changes on install and help in uninstall all traces.. Any OS updation hiccups could also pose problems.. OS also needs to be checked.. SFC scan may be necessary to rule out any OS issues Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Styleanalyst Posted March 25, 2017 ID:1111733 Share Posted March 25, 2017 It's mostly user preference. The best thing you can do is try it. You can always go back to Chrome if you don't like it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
