While in the browser, click on settings (the far left button with the 4 squares on top) and choose windows. It will show you how many browser windows are open and you can close them.
If you only have one window open then you just press the home button to exit.

The system will close it automatically when it is idle for a certain amount of time. This is what 2.1 has. It does not have the close button.

If you want to shut it down completely, you can install an app called "Advanced Task killer" which you can find on the market, once you install that app, you can select which apps you would like to close
hope that helped

I use an app called "Quick Exit", it puts an exit button in your Notifications and lets you close the apps that are active. It's available from the AM.

click the home button the kill app with ATK.. the easy and quick way

sorry, I should have been a little clearer, the preloaded matks. CNN, Samsung registration etc...

Scroll to the bottom of the browsers home page touch > Customize Web 2 Go (you'll get a popup) touch > remove icon. And that will remove bookmarks.. that's how I just did it on Froyo..
Most of us don't use the stock browser. You are limited to what stock will download. I use Dolphin HD and had to go check it out for you.
If you only have the stock browser installed I suggest you download one from the Market. They are Superior over stock.
I hope this helped you.
**EDIT**
Didn't see your edit. Lol.

Help with assigning home button

Ok I downloaded the Regina 3d launcher app. Now I want to change my home button back to the default app. But I cant do it without uninstalling this app. I don't want to uninstall it as it is the best I have seen. Any ideas on how to change it with out uninstalling it.

Try going into settings>applications>manage apps and select Regina and clear data. That will forget the settings and revert back to default home selection

Instead of "clear data" pick "clear defaults" under "launch by default."
Next time you hit the home button it should ask what you want to use.

That app let me launch the original home screen but still would not let me change it back. But I was able to do what I was wanting to do. Thanks!

Internet app missing

Well I was playing around with my new galaxy s3 today and I went to got use the internet app and I accidentally deleted the app from the home screen. I looked in the app drawer and its no where to be found. Can someone please help me.

I'm thinking it would be hard to permanently delete the browser, but I think I know how to help you.... by default the S3 is not sorting apps in your app drawer alphabetically and it makes things impossible to find. Go into the app drawer, hit the menu button, press View Type, and change it to alphabetical grid or alphabetical list, whichever you prefer, and you should be able to find it. You can also change apps on the bottom bar of the homescreen by long pressing then dragging them in and out/to the trash. Good luck and enjoy your S3... it's an awesome phone!
