Windows XP TechTip #8 >> Defaults

You have already set Firefox as your default browser but clicking on web links still loads the page using IE.

This is a common problem for people using multiple browsers. Sometimes answering this prompt is not enough:



To set things straight, run "Set Program Access and Defaults" by:
  • Running "appwiz.cpl" or Control Panel -> "Add or Remove Programs", then selecting "Set Program Access and Defaults"; or
  • Press the Windows button, then click "Set Program Access and Defaults"
Now, click "Custom", then select the browser you want to set as default.



You can look around and tinker with other settings.

That's it. ^__^
