That what happens to people who try to put Firefox in its place *smile*. Seriously though, this is odd. Again, a work around, but I would restore to an earlier point before the computer deletes all the useful restoring points to you, in this case, before you first installed Firefox. Sorry I don't have a better suggestion but hope that works.

Hi Lyn and Amro again -Well, I've uninstalled Firefox, rebooted, and like before, IE launches frommy desk top, but when I click on a link in an email, it doesn't take me to the website, I just stay in the email; previously with firefox loaded,clicking on the email links took me to the website, it use too under IE, butnot now!And, looking at the properties sheet for programmes, I've still only got thecheck box that says check if IE is the default browser, no check box that says to make it so, and no apply button, just ok and cancil!
