Given all the horrors @taviso posted concerning Comodo and AVAST etc, it&#x27;s really really sad to see that the remains of Opera Software are now in fact being bought by a consortium that amongst other things are running &quot;an anti-virus maker that ships a browser&quot;. What could possibly go wrong?<p>And the fact that Qihoo recently got busted in a Volkswagen-like scam when their &quot;anti virus software&quot; was tested does not inspire confidence in their business ethics either:
