I've noticed bizarre behaviour in the latest version of Opera. Sometimes, if i type:
google.com
I will get an error page where it gives the following error:
Could not connect to remote server
You tried to access the address http://google.com/, which is currently unavailable. Please make sure that the web address (URL) is correctly spelled and punctuated, then try reloading the page.
I also get this error when I type:
www.google.com
I have also had this error show up on the following websites:
bing.com
facebook.com
twitter.github.com/bootstrap
autosport.com
Obviously I thought it may be an error with the computer, but as soon as I got this error I tried loading these pages in Firefox and Chrome, and both of these browsers loaded the webpage even when Opera failed.
This problem is intermittent, and Opera will load the page sometime later. The time it takes varies.
Has anyone else had this problem?
EDIT: Well it took a while but the error reappeared when I tried to access https://webmasters.stackexchange.com/.
I had installed Opera Next as advised by Gnoupi, and also loaded Firefox. I tried accessing the site on both of these browsers and they both work. So it's obvious now that the issue is related to version 11.62 of Opera.
1Yes i am having the same problem with Opera 11.62 too, i am using Windows XP, i didn't have this problem before i updated to the latest Opera browser 11.62. There seems to be some bug somewhere in this version – None – 2012-04-17T19:49:39.270
