Opera Mini - Where's the menu?

[relztrah]

I downloaded and installed Opera Mini and it won't connect to the internet. I don't see any menu or settings. How do I get into the menus?

Opera Mini depends on a remote Opera proxy server to compress the pages before sending them to the device.

What version have you actually got, and where did you obtain it from?

Because Opera Mini should look like this...with a search, address bar, various short-cuts, buttons at the bottom, etc...even if it's off-line.

Hmmm. I'm doing something wrong. I downloaded version 4.3 from the Google Play store. All I have when I launch is the letter O that fills up with red liquid (although not completely) and then Unable to connect to the internet.
