There was a problem in Opera for users who had both IPv6 and IPv4 connections on *nix systems, for which we needed an immediate solution, because URLs that were reachable through both IPv4 and IPv6 were no longer working in Opera. We are aware of current problems with IPv6 addresses in Opera 10.10 (which were a result of the fix for that), and this will be fixed ASAP.
