Opera is making me NUTS!

Does anyone know how to change the default browser on the HTC TouchPro? I just want to set it to IE. I can't deal with Opera any more.

Thanks

You might want to consider Skyfire. I played around with Opera on my wife's Touch and was not really impressed. It seemed a bit better than IE, but not nearly as good as Skyfire. Skyfire is not perfect, but it is the best mobile browser I have found so far.... You should be able to download directly to your phone for free at:

Good Luck!

I'll give it a try. But what I really want to know is how to change the DEFAULT browser on the Touch Pro. If I follow a hyperlink sent to me in an e-mail, the Touch Pro will launch OPERA. I want to tell it to use IE or Skyfire. That I can't figure out.

When you download Skyfire, you have the option during its setup to set Skyfire as your default browser. I had it on my Mogul, and just put it on my TouchPro. Way better in my opinion than Opera or IE.

It didn't ask me to make it the default browser on installation, but it did ask me when I accessed it via Program. The Touch Pro seems to use it now when I follow a link from my e-mail, but I still get Opera when I try to get more information from the weather application.

I do like Skyfire - Thanks for the tip.
