Open the “web.config” file for the Web Application you want to modify and insert the above code just before </system.web>.   Note:  This will disable for that one Web Application only.  For a more global solution take a look at the “compat.browser” file and instructions at http://blogs.inetium.com/blogs/bcaauwe/archive/2010/06/28/disable-mobility-features-for-sharepoint-2010.aspx
