| | Problem using Firefox as defaukt browser Yesterday I installed Firefox as my default browser (XP Pro SP2) because IE7 keeps hanging on me. Since then whenever I try to go to the Foldershare site I get an error message saying that FolderShare cannot open my browser, and that I need to go to the Foldershare site and log on. However, it then immediately connects through Firefox and I'm already signed in - so the error message is irrelevant. I uninstalled, deleted all the files, and reinstalled FolderShare but the problem persists. If I set IE7 back to the default browser the error message goes away. Is there a problem with Firefox?

| | RE: Problem using Firefox as defaukt browser If you can still reproduce the problem, could you try the following experiment and send us the last few lines of your log file? 1. Shutdown FolderShare 2. Start FolderShare 3. Reproduce the problem 4. Send the last few lines from: %AppData%\Local\FolderShare\logs\log.log Thanks, Christoph "werD" wrote: Quote: > Could be an add on, but it sounds a little strangr.
