And for the details of why the new version is out:

It's a pretty nasty bug. To quote from the above advisory:

The impacts of this vulnerability include: 
 
 * Read-access to files on the victim's file system 
 * Read-access to lists of files and folders on the victim's file system 
 * Read-access to emails written or received by M2, Opera's mail program 
 * Cookie theft 
 * URL spoofing (phishing) 
 * Track user browsing history 
 * Much more...

This one's a very important download, folks. Get it while it's hot!

From download to install in less than 5 minutes. They are making it easier. :)
