The latest addition to the stable release channel for Opera is v11.61, which includes more than 50 security and stability enhancements and is recommended for all users, Beta News reported.

Users can either wait for the automatic updater to occur, or can force a manual check and update from the Help menu.

Two of the most important changes to the browser see a couple of on-going scripting problems being fixed, but there are also a large number of additional tweaks that address issues with various aspects of the program, the report says.

From a user interface point of view, there have been tweaks that fix problems such as incorrectly sized dialogs, incorrect icons and poor handling of fullscreen mode on Windows XP. Also fixed are a number of crash scenarios and better handling of third-party skins. Users of previous versions of Opera have reported problems with a number of specific websites including PayPal, NFL.com and others, and these crashes and freezes have now been fixed, it says.
