There is a backdoor (called svhost.exe (similar to svchost.exe, but there is no c)) that renames itself as Opera.exe process. So if you haven' t opened opera, but it is on task list, its backdoor..

It's a web browser. How anyone could rate it as "harmful" is beyond me, yet someone has? It's far more secure than Internet Explorer, and a little more secure than even Firefox. About the only more secure browser is a limited text only browser like Lynx.
