| | Links open in IE even when FF is default? Okay this is more annoying than anything else, but Firefox is my default browser. However, whenever I click on links in email, ims, etc, they always open in IE. Since I want to make sure all my bookmarks are in one place (Firefox), how the heck do I change this? I haven't been able to find any options for default browser in WLM or im software? Running Vista home premium by the way. Thanks!
