Somehow my Opera browser is screwed up. It doesn't display tabs anymore, if you "open link in new tab", it opens it in a new window, the menu and bookmarks aren't accessible anymore, right-clicking on the navigation bar only gives a small appearance menu in which most options are greyed out, so the whole thing is totally screwed up. I de-installed it and deleted the install folder, then re-installed it, the same strange behavior. Hmmm...anyone else had this problem? I really like Opera, but as it is now, I can't really use the browser anymore.

My guess is it's something related to your profile.

It must have had something to do with that. Before I read your post, I backed up the bookmarks and wand files, uninstalled Opera again, deleted the whole directory with the profile data and all that, and cleaned out the registry. After reinstalling Opera and dropping the backed-up files in the profile folder, it now works properly again. But thanks for the tip anyway!
