| | Default Programs I installed Vista Home Premium as a dual boot with Windows XP. The installation was flawless! I am quite pleased and think MS has done a good job. Now my question. I would like Firefox to be my default browser and Winamp to be my default media player for streaming audio from a website. No matter how I try, I can't seem to get Vista to cooperate. Can someone help me with this problem? What exactly do I need to do? Thank you in advance. |

| | Re: Default Programs When it comes to Firefox you will have to wait till they bring out a version that it 100% compliant with vista. Firefox does run alright in windows, but it can not be set as the default browser at the moment.
