Opera 8.51 for Desktop Released

Opera"s latest release addresses the security issue in the Flash Player (Secunia Advisory 17437). Opera 8.51 for Windows ships with Macromedia Flash version 7r61.

The release is a recommended security upgrade for Linux/FreeBSD/Solaris users, because it updates Opera"s wrapper script to not run commands included with URLs passed from other applications (as suggested in Secunia Advisory 16907).

Users of Mac OS X with Japanese systems will experience improved stability on pages with Java.
