His suggestion removes the Opera process from running automatically after soft reset. If you arent using Opera, and that process is not "killed" after a soft reset, it DOES drain your battery significantly. If you manually kill the process, OR if you load up Opera (after a soft reset) and then exit Opera (which also kills the process), then the battery drain goes away.

So his advertisement is true, provided you arent a freak Opera user that loads it up seconds after every soft reset (does anyone like that actually exist?)

Thank you Mr Obvious for the answer to my question from many posts ago on how to remove that stupid process from the start!
