    Please note, that the Opera "Bork Edition", released on 14-Feb-2003,
    calls itself on the "opera:about" page also "Opera 7.02" (build number
    is "2658 Bork Edition"), but _is_ vulnerable. (Not tested, but it has
    been released before the vulnerability was discovered... :-)

                Kind regards, Axel Beckert
