Yes its the renaming trick - the problem faced with the renaming trick with IExplore.exe though is first, its a protected system file with read-only attributes that it resets and wont allow a change to (at least no way I found yet) and secondly while the rename trick will be great for the Internet page, ANY other app will be unable to find a file called IExplore.exe should it send out a call to that file

Hence the reason I put out the call to find a copy of Windows Mobile IExplore.exe so I can rename the file OperaL.exe and then copy that into the \windows directory overwriting OperaL originally there and causing the Internet page to make a call and recieve the app IE instead and as the calls out to any associated files from IE come from within the exe itself and not related to the naming conventions so it should (in theory) work like a champ
