Haven't looked at Opera for some years now. I'm sure it's very good. Of course, there are Firefox extensions to handle torrents, but like you I prefer a dedicated client.
utorrent has a good reputation for being a very lightweight (in a good way) bit torrent client. Personally I use
Azureus which has more features and is free (as is utorrent).
One more for the list that I forgot before:
Snarfer which is a free RSS/Atom reader. I've tried several others and found them bloated and slow. This one is neither.
