Ooh dear.

'AmericanSingles.com - The Global Relationship Network'. (Opera banner ad.)

Someone else needs to be told that America != The World.

(Oh, and I'm sure I put something in my options to attempt to avoid getting Singles ads - looks like they don't take any notice of that, then)

Ingenous .. I always put myself down as single (fear of marital aid ads or merely a lack of imagination?), but aim for the "I have no income, I influence the descions of no-one with income".

Maybe they think that people who have partners still like flirting online (I do hope they're wrong).

Perhaps the solution is to pretend to be an OAP?

Advertising in desperation? ;-)

Just give up, you'll never get them to believe it :-(

Well, it works for me! *whistles innocently*

Where do you put that? Is it something you have to add to opera.ini by hand?
