I would  still report the site  (Help -> Report a  Site problem).  The
GNU/Linux version of 8.10p2 has the 'default' ID set to Opera -- which
seems to indicate to me that Opera is planning on changing the default
from  IE  to  Opera  in  the  next 'real'  release.   No  problem  for
experienced users, but what about new users?
