The whole Opera and virus / malware thing was unfounded. I run absolutely no (zero) anti-virus, 
anti-malware etc. on my many machines and have downloaded every vesion as it came out. If anyone 
would have had a problem it would have been me.

John and I have done the comparison between WSPR-2 and OP4 ... results were reasonably close with 
WSPR-2 having the edge. Believe we published the results here but can't remember for sure. At some 
point we'll get around to WSPR-15 vs OP8 or OP32 I would expect.
