Defaults not being set

I have chosen (via a tick in the pop up) to have the native internet browser as the default browser, but when ever I click a link the popup keeps asking which browser should be used (Opera, Skyfire or Internet).

I've checked in "manage application" and the "internet" is set as the default browser and the default buttion on the other 2 browsers is greyed out, so they are not clearly, default.

How do I remove this annoying popup so my default choice remains set ?

With so many hackers and modders on this site, how come nobody is able answer such basic questions?

I'm glad I don't use this Galaxy as my main device because I'd have thrown it in the bin a long time ago.

My iPhone 4 kicks it's ass in every aspect. The only reason I keep the Galaxy is for it's ability to play 720p MKV's ( which the iPhone can't do until Apple releases it's hold on the API's.

I may be wrong on this but I believe that the reason you get that pop up asking which browser to use is because it is an integrated setting in the Stock Browser so that if you have other browsers (Skyfire, Dophin, Opera, etc) it will ask you if you want to use one of the "application" browsers as your default.

I dont think this can be changed (again I could be wrong) and I think the only way you can get rid of this pop up is to uninstall the other browsers from your system.

If I am wrong and anyone else reads this then please correct me... :)
