Lol, not every browser is based on FF or IE you know! Opera runs it's own engine, Presto. Flock is Mozilla-based but tweaked for Twitter usage and the like.
Strange original post I have to say. Two almost unconnected browsers and no mention of FF, Chrome/Chromium, Seamonkey, Epiphany, K-Meleon, Safari etc etc.
No not all. Ironically, the most popular of them all, IE, requires a valid Windows license!

Should say I do favor Opera browser and find tor the best anonymizer. I tried flock before and found it practically good-for-nothing.
Quite good and fast freeware Link Removed - Invalid URL

I once tried opera and actually thought it was pretty good. I'm sure Davehc used to swear by it.. What put me off in the end was when I found out that the whole IE and Europe debate was down to 'Mr Opera' who had got his MEP to bring the subject up in the european parliment.. Mind you, we still got it in the end lol...
I think I aught to add that I'm not a total IE advocate but just thought the debate was pretty ridiculous..Why should MS have to remove a needed tool without getting Apple to remove their browser too and along with any other os's...

I guess at the end of the day it all comes down to greed.. Although if i was mr Opera I'd still be pretty proud of the product as I think we both agree that it does have it's good points.. He should concentrate on making it better and then perhaps his market share will improve.. I mean thats all that Firefox and google do.. They are constantly bring out new updates where as the last opera update was ages (in fact eons ) ago....

Yeah, I too think there was absolutely no need to act that way. And total consensus on what you see how they should do.
I would disagree here, they are in fact issuing new versions, like 10.00, then 10.01, right now version 10.10 is getting ready. Or perhaps you mean no right updates requested by users ?
