Push Page Error/Local host/IE on TP2

I have a problem with my Push Pages. Whenever i try to access a pushpage, my opera browser opens and gives me this error: You tried to access the address file://localhost/obnc/Program%20files/pushinternet/temp/3b9a.tmp,http.www.blabla.com ( bla bla is any page)
i dont know how to fix this..is there a registry entry or a way to fix this in opera.... i tried installing a new version of Opera..but it didnt work....ultimately i would like to open my push pages in IE instead of Opera...I have made some registry changes and while my Internet browser opens with IE, the push pages open with Opera.
I am using a cooked rom so I can't uninstall Opera. I also followed these directions:

You are looking for an .xml file called: InternetPortal-en-us.xml
I copied it to my desktop, then edited it using Notepad. Always keep a copy of the stock page before starting any edits!
Replace the line showing the path to IE with this:
<BrowserExe>\Program Files\Skyfire\Skyfire.exe</BrowserExe>
but i dont have the Manila folder although my rom uses Manila 2.5
I am dying here....anyone that has any suggestions, I would definetly appreciate it

Edit Internet Push Links

I don't know where they came from (probably a side-effect of a ROM install) but I suddenly find myself with a bunch of Internet Push links that I don't want. Looked around the web and can find info on how to edit/remove these links. Lots of people seem to have advice on disabling Push Internet, but that is the last thing I want.
How do you get rid of of Push Internet link once it's created? Can't find anything in registry or a Manila folder in Application Data.
Thanks!
bump. Someone must know.
Bump....I'm really searching for this too !!

I'm too new to post links but look at thread number 548770 and see if that solves your problem.

Unfortunately on Sprint devices (or at least on mine) there is no \Application Data\Manila\InternetPortal-en-us.xml file to edit In fact the \Application Data\Manila\ folder doesn't even exist, and that particular xml file is nowhere to be found on the entire device (doing a search with Resco Explorer, and making sure I have Hide Hidden Files unchecked)
When you are on the internet tab there should be a 'Menu' softkey. In there is a remove option to remove them I think.
Unfortunately no. I have a Bookmarks softkey and a Browser softkey. Neither brings up a menu.

problem - .CAB become XML DUCUMENT

hi,
I tried to search about my issue , but no use at all.
at first of all i would like to mention that I`m a newbie (very newbie) so please try to help me with my problem.
my problem is that when i unzip any .cab file , i got the setup file in it as XML document , and when i transfer it to my storage card , it`s turn (the setup file) to a web page , so when i click it to setup the program , an opera page opened immediately with a browser address ( file:// localhost/storage%20card/core%20player/_SETUP.XML) in other programs it might be _setup.cab.xml at the end.
so can any one help me what to do to solve this problem , and can install a program in my mobi windows.
thanx in advance.
YOU install the .cab file ,don't extract the contents of it!

Saving a file from a graphic link?

In the Galaxy Nexus stock browser, when I long-press on a text link, the menu option to "save link" is available. However, when the link is a button graphic, long-pressing the link only gives the option to "save image", "view image", or "set as wallpaper". How do I download the link (an mp3 file) from the browser?
On all of my previous Android devices, the stock browser would recognize that even though the link is represented by an image, it's still a link. Long-pressing would give the option to save link. By the way, my other Android devices have been the original Droid, Droid X, Toshiba Thrive, Nook Color running CM7.
This seems like a step back for the ICS browser. I tried using the Dolphin HD browser, but had the same problem. My current workaround is to click on the link, tell it to complete action using another app that will allow me to copy the link's URL, then pasting the link in an app called Download Manager to download the file (and if I navigate away from that app in the middle of a download, the download fails). I prefer to download from the stock browser, because it's more convenient and it can continue downloading the background while I do something else on the phone. I tried disabling "show images" in the stock browser settings, but when I do I'm unable to long-press the particular link I've been attempting. Normal-clicking the link only plays (streams) the mp3 file or asks what app I want to use to play the file; it doesn't download the file locally. I also have Astro File Manager installed on all devices, with the option enabled to allow downloading of all file types in the browser, but that shouldn't matter, because mp3 is a file type that's already recognized by the OS.
The link I'm talking about is at the following URL:
http://kelbytv.com/thegrid/2012/01/05/the-grid-episode-37/
If you scroll down to the bottom of the episode summary, there's a button that says "Download Audio Only" that links to an mp3 of this podcast.
Can anyone help solve this or confirm that they have the same problem?

i have the same issue but with a different file type (.mov). Any idea how the link can be saved/downloaded? thanks in advance.

URL links not being copied to the clipboard

Hi all, I'm looking for help with an issue I've been having for a few days now. It seems URL links I want to copy to the clipboard are not being copied using the Copy option.
Specifically, it happens when I go to a link from Google Search. After loading the link, and opening the menu, clicking on Copy does not copy the link. The only way I can copy it is long pressing in the address and then choosing to copy it.
The only thing I've tried to do is clearing SwiftKey's cache, which did not fix the problem.
My phone is stock, with all apps updated to their latest versions. No error message appears.
Thanks for any help or advice provided.
