Downloads using Opera

[l3luey]

When I download using opera 9, I use up two of my daily allowance per download !!

I couldn't find this being discussed before so thought I'd ask why this is ?

Cheers.

It isn't discussed here because you are the only one who has such a problem

btw: you are supposed to click only once on the download link

right,,hahaha!!, no comment

Of course I clicked once what do you think I'm an idiot.

I suppose you do get 'em here, so I dont blame you for stated the obvious.

But seriously, It takes 2 per click for some reason ?
Just thought you would like to know.

hey l3luey... sorry mann... you were right - Opera does nick off 2 creds per download

of course you dont need to worry when i'm around
Solution:
Instead of using the Left click use the middle button (or press the scroll wheel) on your mouse to click on the download link
that way the download will open in a new tab and only one point will be cut instead of two

sorry again for making you sound like a monkey

Thanks for the heads up and no worries mate.

I just hate being forced to use I.E. so nice to hear theres no need.

DOWNLOADING WITH OPERA
This is for everyone who's been ****** off by spending 2 credit points per download with Opera (because the 3rd button fails too )

1. Visit the Mobiles24.com WAPsite from Opera by entering wap.mobiles24.com in the address bar.
2. Login to your account
3. Click on "Get Download By ID" link.
4. Right-click inside the textbox (next to Go button) and click on Create search...
5. Enter any keyword (like wap or anything you want) and click on OK
6. Now whenever you want to download something, just double-click on the Download ID code, right-click over the selection and choose Search with > Mobiles24.com Wapsite
7. Download whatever you wanted and hit the backspace key to return to the main site - you can directly use Search insted of Search with next time

hopefully this will help some helpless soul like me
do anything - but dont dump Opera!!!
