It sounds like a fix for the "all browsers" security problem reported last week: [webmasterworld.com...] If so, that would make Opera the first to fix, afaik.

Thanks for the reminder Jennifer. I just wanted to bump this back up to the top for the Opera users out there. Make sure that you download the 7.54u1 version, and that you check your version in opera:about to make sure you've got the latest version. Currently the Opera download page only has the Opera 7.54 Security Update listed in the right-hand column. The rest of the download sites have yet to be updated.

[arc.opera.com...] is not showing a download for me. Maybe it's a temporary thing.

The full link for the Windows download (without java) is: [arc.opera.com...] If you want the java, it's: [arc.opera.com...]

I read that to cure Preview 4 would cause problems at this stage, so there'll probably be a Preview 5 later. That version is still being worked on quite a bit. (It's not advisable to use it for everyday work.) Once again, the upgrade to 7.54 has proved how Opera and others like Firefox take security seriously, bringing a patch out almost instantly. It'll be weeks if not months before Microsoft get round to theirs, won't it? I know which browser I trust... it begins with O.
