    how to Set opera as default browser on 1 user? I am sharing the pc with my brother. My brother prefers firefox as his default, but i prefer opera as my default. So my question is, how to set opera as my default browser in my user ONLY.

    This is the only way I have seen it done. I have never used it but I know of some people I've ran into on the web that have and it worked fine for them.

    Since Opera isn't specifically listed, you might set the machine wide default to Opera and then have your brother set his account (using the program) to Firefox.

    Let us know if it works... ;)
