Hi Goober78
WSA protects users from online threats irrespective of the browser used, i.e., if visiting a website eneds up in an attempt at a driveby downlaod of a malicious payload then WSA will intercept the payload as it tries to activate.
However, the Web Shield, i.e., Identity Protection, etc. will not cover Opera by default or straight out of the box, so to speak. One has to add the browser application/exe under the Shield.
To understand how to do that please refer to this section of the online help, an post back if you have any diffculties or questions.

And please let us know if that works. Also do as Baldrick said by adding it to the Identity Shield.
Thanks,

Yeppers! If it's Chrome Based or Firefox Based browsers then some of the work around's could work! But again it's all Unofficial!
