 | Hi there,
I'm trying to access a website on port 95, but apparantly Opera blocks
this. Is there any way to unblock it?
Thanks,
Remi

| As far as I know Opera should not and does not block ports at all.
How are you trying to access this site and what happens?

Yes, Opera does block some ports.

I stand corrected. Thanks for the heads-up.

| I can certainly see why they block certain ports, but is there no way
of unblocking them? I didn't see any solution in any of those threads.
Yngve's statement about not being able to view sites on those ports in
Mozilla-based browsers is also incorrect - it's just a case of editing
user.js in Firefox or whatever.
