stopping sony ericsson k610i connecting to 3g internet

i am getting fed up with my taking my phone out of my pocket to find its loaded a webpage i never wanted, due to pressing keys even though i try and make sure the keypad is locked.

this means i get billed on top of my monthly plan amount for something i dont even want. is there any way i can disable the phone from connecting to webpages? can i delete the settings its using to connect, if so what should i be looking for?

    There is a thread here that may help - tells how to redifine the start page so when the internet button is pressed, it doesn't connect to the web.
