You need to re-associate your *current* browser as the default.
For IE, go to Tools / Internet Options / Programs and check the
box: 'Internet Explorer should check to see whether it is the
default browser'. Now start IE and confirm 'Yes' when it asks
if you want to make it default.

Mike, I've tried this but firstly it doesnt ask me to confirm whether IE is
now the default browser and it still gives me the message "error
inintialising opera" from lots of links like it is still the default browser

Make sure that ALL instances of IE and OE are closed, then go to
Control Panel / Internet Options / Programs, uncheck the option,
press 'Apply', recheck the option and press 'Apply' again. Open
up IE and it *should* ask you to set as default.

If you still have problems, see my sig.
