Hi,
After using firefox for a while I'm going to go back to IE for various
reasons. I'm using XP SP2 I've reset IE to the default browser, using
the Internet Options control panel and 'Set program access and
defaults'.
However, whenever I click a bookmark or enter an address in the address
bar it opens in Firefox. Likewise when I click a favourite in Explorer
it launches in Firefox. Clicking links within a page in Internet
Explorer are OK and they open in the same page in IE.
In the Folder Options Control panel the entry for 'URL' is still
"C:\PROGRA~1\MOZILL~1\FIREFOX.EXE -url "%1""
I tried changing this to reference IEXPORE.exe instead and it half
worked, only IE insisted on opening everything in a new window.
What is the correct entry for the URL type? or is there anyway
something else I should be trying. I tried reinstalling SP2 as per
instructions in the Microsoft Knowledge Base to remedy IE problems but
it didn't help.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
.
