Fixes crashes spawning from the newly introduced features

As Opera’s development is largely based on individual instances of the browser capturing specific components that need to be tested, they released a new post-beta snapshot today.

The new build for 11.60 Beta, 1159, does not introduce any new features, but consolidates the existing ones. As such, it fixes crashes caused by the recently introduced changes: new mail design, Ragnarök (HTML5 Parser) or HTML5 content handlers.

Besides the core fixes, Opera 11.60 build 1159 also attends to other discomforting issues, such as thumbnails blurring up upon resizing the Speed Dial or the manual zoom not taking effect on the spot. Additional repairs took care of a bug that caused Opera to crash upon closing after failure to save bookmarks file.

By default, this snapshot will upgrade the stable version of Opera. However, you can avoid this and install it separately by choosing the “Stand-alone installation (USB)” method in the initial Options menu.
