"Opera" browser problem 1 of 3?

I’ve recently begun using Opera as my browser, which I basically like (skip down to the word “QUESTION” if you don’t care why and just want to get to the question), especially because it offers tabbed windows that remember the order that they were visited (Mozilla always defaults to the neighboring tab if I close one, not the one from which I created the new tab, which is usually where I would rather be, especially if its one of the Yahoo! Answers pages of recent questions asked on a category page). Also, if my computer freezes when I have several windows of several tabs each opened and I am forced to reboot, Opera allows me the option of reopening all of the windows and tabs open at the time of the crash upon reopening the browser. Also, it offers a speed dial function. But I haven’t been able to solve a few problems even with the tutorial, so my hope is that somebody here will be familiar enough with the browser to help me.

Update:

QUESTION: I have lost the ability to call up email names and addresses using nicknames and using the first few letters as I can with my Mozilla Firefox browser on my computer at work, and as I could on this computer when I used Netscape (which became unreliable after some kind of viral infection and now I have been told is no longer even available) and Explorer following that. I cannot find out or figure out how to recover this handy insertion feature. My email, incidentally, is through Yahoo. I have searched Yahoo email options unsuccessfully, and believe the problem is in the browser since my Mozilla office set-up is still working

Can anybody advise me on correcting this?

    man! Opera is a good browser but not with Yeah-Who! Since Yeah-Who loves to rummage in your comp and collect information on you, they don’t like any other browser but MS IE.
