I have had this happen to me lots of times. I think it is because whatever link you are clicking on only uses IE.
The way that I get around this is to copy the link in IE and then open it in SeaMonkey, in your case open it in Opera.
Someone else might have a better idea, we'll see.

Does it happen, when you click on some link from WITHIN Opera?

I've never heard of such a problem and even Google doesn't bring any hits about it.
Can you post couple of sample links, where it happens?
