How do I tell a shortcut to a URL not to use the default browser, but
specify which browser to use when opening the link?
I have created a shortcut on my desktop that connects me to Oculus on
my company's intranet. Much as I would love to be able to click on it
and use my default browser (Mozilla Firefox) to use this, Oculus
doesn't play nice with Firefox, and I must use Internet Explorer (which
I don't mind since upgrading to IE7 beta).
