I have noticed that Web Shield of the latest build doesn't block the bad pages in Opera 12.14. However they are blocked in IE9. The shield in the previous beta build 8.0.2.103 worked fine in Opera 12.14. So something had to be changed between these two builds.

I use Opera a lot, so I hope this gets resolved quickly.

I can confirm Opera isn't blocked but in the log it shows a block but Firefox & IE still works fine.

It is for situations like this that I started This Idea  It would make it easy and safe to double check URL blocking functionality.  (Hint Hint.. begging for Kudo's here  :S )

It looks like this issue reproduces.  I'm putting together a bug report.  Good catch Pegas.
 
However, I had mentioned before, there will be some major work done on the Web Threat Shield that should get these kinds of issues resolved.  I'm going to check up on the status of that work for you.

Jim, it wasn't cought by chance 😉. I am doing some kind of QA checks of every new released build. It means that I am checking all the bugs I have reported whether they were resolved or not yet. Malfunctioning Web Shield in Opera is quite an old issue so I was curious to see improvements but I have discovered that it wasn't improved, it stoped to work completely :D

I know you said it hence the more I was wondering if it was improved.
