Opera browser 10.60

By Detector | 02 July 2010



Opera software has released the newest Opera – 10.6 that brings more speed, bug fixes, HTML 5 support and malware protection in form of AVG Web Threat Data Feed against viruses.

The biggest news in this release is the inclusion of several new HTML5 features. Opera 10.6 adds support for Web Workers, the Geolocation API, improved support for offline web apps, and improved support for the Cross-Document Messaging spec. Opera 10.6 also supports the new WebM video codec. WebM is a new video codec for web for playing video and audio content embedded on HTML5 web pages without the use of plug-ins and is supported by all major web browsers.

The speed of Javascript execution is also improved and Opera claims that the new 10.6 version is 50% faster than the predecessor.

Opera has long featured fraud protection based on data from Netcraft and PhishTank. Opera 10.6 adds AVG data to that list to help block sites known to host malware attacks, rootkits and other common attacks.

For downloading new opera 10.6 visit – Opera official page, and if you have Opera already installed it will be updated automatically.
