Step 1: Clear the current browser that opens links

  • Open the Settings application and tap on Apps. (On some versions of Android this button is labelled "Applications" and you may have to tap on Manage applications before the next step.)
  • Tap on the All tab.

  • Android ICS Manage Apps
  • Tap on the current browser that opens links. This is usually the default browser which is called "Browser" or "Internet".
  • Tap on Clear defaults to prevent this browser from opening links by default. If "Clear defaults" is greyed out, then either you have not installed another browser or you have installed another browser like Opera and it is set to be the default browser. If you have installed another browser, go back to the previous step and repeat with the default browser.
