Well Andy, after you followed the steps Lyn suggested, did you run IE and clicked on make IE my default browser? Another way is to go to IE/Tools/Internet Options, on the Programs page, tap few times and tick the box that says Internet Explorer should check to see whether it is the default browser. So the next time you run IE you get asked whether you want to make IE your default browser...
Hope that works. Amro----- Original Message ----- From: "Andy Collins" <andy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Lyn - not quite working, because having done this and rebooted, if I click on a link in an email for example, Firefox ratehr than IE still opens! - Andy----- Original Message ----- From: "Lyn & Twinny" <keanemaniac@xxxxxxxxx>To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Sunday, August 10, 2008 10:17 PM Subject: [access-uk] Re: Making IE my default browser | Andy, | Go to internet explorer proprieties by hitting alt+enter on internetexplorer.
