| 14 | 8:16 pm PDT, May 25 | brian p | they arnt sending all the code becuase its most likely spyware/adware/toolbars/ads and other bs. my mother uses her computer strictly for aol and yahoo, and has avast, zone alarm, and spyware doctor, yet still had issues. i rebuilt the computer, tried to access yahoo games from opera, and no surpirse, didnt work. opera is the most secure browser out, it cant recieve all the code/is rejecting code for a reason --becuase its mallicious. |

Don't discriminate against the Opera browser
After some issues appeared when using Yahoo (Web) Email with opera and being ignored by the Yahoo Customer Care, I decided to do some research and to my unpleasent surprise I found quite some places that talk about how Yahoo is breaking Opera browser. Being a software engineer made it easy for me to convince myself of this. I will now try to convince all of you out there that this is indeed happening.
This is "the thing" that outlines probably the best way this issue: http://operawatch.blogspot.com/2005/11/yahoo-discriminating-against-opera.html
You will find more of such reports regarding issues related to yahoo services that have the same root problem in opera community: http://my.opera.com/community/forums/group.dml?id=45961
I have made some more or less random selections:

you can find much more from the opera community search: http://my.opera.com/community/forums/search.dml?term=yahoo&id=
And the worse thing is that Yahoo Customer Care, the place where you would expect a human (not a machine/software/etc) to respond to your emails, is actually a big, bad joke: template and generated responses make the law there. No chance of getting to a competent human.
This is why I want to show everbody that:
- yes, there is a problem with yahoo software when it comes to opera and it's generally yahoos fault
- yes, we want a way to communicate to yahoo the problems we find and we expect to communicate to humans and not some programs/scripts.
These are the informations regarding the bug report I have sent to Yahoo Customer Care:

Why do I have to change my browser just to make use of a function that worked before? Before someone wants to answer that question, he/she should first read this: http://my.opera.com/community/forums/topic.dml?id=61946 and http://my.opera.com/community/forums/topic.dml?id=36940 . Opera is pretty good and stable so the main question is: why try to break it? Why try to make it look as being full of bugs?
Will this ever come to an end?
