I think i have seen a variant of this from time to time. If i close Opera using the in browser exit button, it saves what page i am on. So the next time i open the browser it will try to go to that page. Now if i stop that, the connection it initiated in the background still goes on connecting. And once the connection is set up, Opera closes. This is on a N800 btw. And i could have sworn i reported it to the Opera bug tracker. But as it is not searchable i can not go back and check.
