New Agent string setting
Does it really enable more objects, or does it just lie to the server to fool the gits that refuse to serve anything but IE?

New Yes, it enables more objects.
But only enough for JavaScript that looks for IE to find what it is looking for.

The information can be a shade tricky to find on the web, but they do document it. From the Help file: "The second thing to note is the "Identify as MSIE 5.0" setting. If enabled, Opera will attempt to execute scripts that are of JScript kind. Also, the browser will respond to document.all and document.id calls if this is what Opera identifies as."
