simply fix and still allows for Opera, Skyfire whatever to be on there and used as well, just replaces Opera in the interface with whichever of the others you prefer

truthfully I dont think so - TCPMP just sends the request for a page to open to the system and the system default is going to be either IE, Opera or Skyfire or even MiniMO but its set by default within the system and you the user.

Im doubting that TCPMP has any registry calls that can be altered but Ill check and see just to be certain.

There is always media streamer available for opening a page and streaming media though it but Im not thinking thats a fix for your needs is it?

tried this program on my touch pro. no difference. when i select the internet icon on my pro, it still selects the opera as the browser to open. any insight?

I'll give you 2 good reasons to use IE rather than Opera.
1. Bank of America does not support mobile banking on Opera. I do a lot of mobile banking.
2. Opera can't seem to load Google Maps. I get lost a lot.

you could probably change default browser in the reg tho.

id suggest you try opera again tho. you'll realize that IE is a waste of space

You should get Garmin or something.

I use Bank of America in Opera almost every day, and i just downloaded that crazy google maps application to my phone. I know thats insane, but i just works better than the website
