to set the default browser you have to edit the registry as:

for Opera:
HKLM/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Shell/Rai/

EFBROWSER
/0 Opera Browser
/1 "\Windows\OperaL.exe"

for IE:
/0 IExplore
/1 :MSPIE

Any idea what to edit for Opera MINI 5? Thanks!

There is a hack for Opera Mini here at XDA-Developers. This is an older thread so I'm guessing you would just substitute the old version of the program for the newer one.

I just installed Opera 9.7 and it is set as the default when I launch the browser. I didn't change any settings?

Yeah it installs itself as the default. What version of 9.7 did you install?
