is there any way to change the browser used by MSN
messenger to check emails and open links sent in IM's?

I don't use Internet Explorer (use Mozilla instead) and I
would like messenger to use Mozilla when I click on the
Hotmail link at the top of the list of messenger contacts.

Any help would be appreciated.

**PS I use Messenger 6.2**
