But I installed freebsd through the http proxy server and that went fine. I can install all other packages just fine because I've set the http_proxy environment variable to our proxy server and everything works fine. Only the cvsup won't work.
I'm now installing mozilla-firebird:-(

If you can't ftp or cvsup with the proxy server, I'd suggest using another PC to download an updated ports collection, then the files for Opera and dependencies (these aren't terribly large, so it won't take very long even on a slow connection) and burning these to a CD. You can then use these to update your system that is behind the proxy server and build Opera.
If you do want to update ports at some point and have FTP access you can download the full ports tarball from <URL: ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/ports-stable/ports.tar.gz>.
