Like Daniel, I assume this has nothing to do with pdf, so I'm hoping
this mail will start a new thread :)

Clicking "Q&A" on qrz.com seems to work for me.  Maybe something is
messed up in your settings?  A simple way to test this is to start
opera from a commandline with something like:

opera -pd newdir

Where "newdir" does not exist in your file system.  Opera should then
start up using "newdir" for all settings etc., and will create it if
it doesn't already exist.
