I have used it for a long time, it started out good, but it has worked worse and worse with each new version (fewer and fewer web pages work, it crashes if you try to scroll before a page has completly loaded, etc)

I still use it,and I love the mouse gestures feature,but you are right the browser is getting less,and less stable,and unpredictable. I may have to stop using it soon. I have FireFox,and Safari as well,but I really got used to Opera,and I liked it a lot.

I abandoned Opera once I found a mouse gestures extension for FireFox.
Opera's a cool browser, but they just can't seem to break through to the mainstream in the US. There's TONs of mobile devices using mobile Opera, though.
I think the problem is that every time they come out with some revolutionary new feature, within a week some geek has made an extension for Firefox that does the same thing. Extensibility is pretty awesome.
On the other hand, some of the very coolest stuff is happening with WebKit (Safari & Chrome)
I enjoy opera, it's a very smooth interface and I still smile slightly when I use the quick dial feature
I'm pretty satisfied with Opera, but really the only features of it that I use are the quick dial, multiple tabs, and the password wand.
The only reason I went with Opera instead of Chrome or Firefox is that I use Opera Mini on my cell phone. Bookmarks and notes sync together and I can find all my browser info from a single source.
I use Opera, my wife uses Firefox. I've had really no issues with either. Both work rather well. The password wand is the main selling point for me, though.
Desktop & Laptop: Firefox
BlackBerry; Opera Mini (although it's not MUCH better than the BB browser)

When you enter a username and password for a site, it will bring up a window asking if you would like it to save them for that site. If you click yes, everytime you go to that site you just hit the star button at the top of the browser and it fills in your username and password and logs in for you.
I'm assuming most browsers have this feature but just naming it differently?
Edit: I see you're already using Opera. Try going to tools...preferences...Wand tab.... click the checkbox to allow opera to save your passwords
