Opera is celebrating their 10th anniversary and is offering free registrations for an add-free browser for today only.

I think you're supposed to email: registerme@opera.com to get a free registration key, but I did and didn't receive a response quickly.

Someone on Slashdot posted an alternative that works. Go to the address below and it will generate a new registration key every time.

I paid for 7.0 a while back, and they grand-fathered me in to 8. I love Opera - it's a shame that Firefox will probably end up killing it off.

i was thinking that free FF is one of the motives of offering Opera for free today.

Problem is that Opera is trying to run a business. One of the pet peeves I have with FireFox is that I really can't think of any innovation that it's brought to the browser scene. Well, I suppose their debugging tools are pretty good, so there's that. But Opera has been very innovative in the market, and it doesn't seem like they're getting any reward for it - FireFox snaps up the idea and gets the credit as being the "alternate" to IE.
