# Tap on the current browser that opens links. This is usually the default browser which is called "Browser" or "Internet".
# Tap on {button Clear defaults} to prevent this browser from opening links by default. If this "Clear defaults" is greyed out, then the default browser is another browser like Opera; go back to the previous step and repeat with the default browser.
