Opera Quadruples Download Rate

Just saw this in my email box…

Oslo, Norway – October 5, 2005: More than three million new users have downloaded the Opera browser in the two weeks since the company launched its free browser. The average daily download rate quadruples the previous rate achieved before the release of Opera 8.5.Opera’s growth comes as consumers demand greater safety and productivity online. Opera has the strongest security track record of any browser and continuously innovates the browser experience with features such as built-in search bars, a password manager, notes and saved sessions that make surfing easier, faster and more organized.

Opera also has built-in voice capabilities and zooming features that help make the Web more accessible to users of all abilities. Download Opera at www.opera.com.
