    Yeah--sure. Show me ONE browser hijack that Opera is vulnerable to. You can't. This product is for IE only. That's why it is described as follows: " fix IE Homepage, IE Default Page, IE Search Page, IE BHOs, IE Menu, Internet Options, IE Search Hooks, IE Toolbars, IE Context Menu...".

    See Opera mentioned anywhere in there? I didn't think so. Does this thing do anything that Spybot doesn't, for free? I didn't think so.

    P.S. Opera is free too, if you don't mind dealing with an ad in the toolbar. And it's nothing at all like MyIE2.

    Even you use Opera Hijackware will install in your system, your system will slow.
    Opera more like MyIE2, but MyIE2 is free.

    I can answer your question: If you're using Opera instead of Insecure Explorer, you won't have had your browser hijacked in the first place. So forget about it.

    Never mind the rating. What if the browser is Adware, such as Opera? Perhaps the developers of Browser Hijack Recover might shed some light on this issue.
