Hi,

my default browser is firefox - have just discovered that I can no longer
access the web using IE. This became apparent whem using WMP.

Current problem is that I cannot find any place where settings for IE are
apart from internet options - which all seem ok.

can anyone point me in the right direction to troubleshoot this

Thanks

Nick,
