Opti or O2?

Ok, I'm hoping this isn't the infamous opti problem. Here are the symptoms.

When I was on the highway yesterday it was stumbling around 2000rpm - 2500rpm.
The check engine light came on. When i got home, popped the hood and it smelt like something was burining.
So then today, took the car out, not so much stumbling, but whenever I stop at the light, it idles pretty rough and the car shakes a bit more than normal. (which is what happened when one of my O2 sensor went bad a lil while ago, but I just changed the bad one, which is why I'm hoping it's the other O2 and not the opti)

Anywayz, just wanted to put it out there and see if you guys can help me out, I know it's not a lot of info, but I just wanna get an idea of what I might be dealing with. Thx.
