Chris, I'm prepared to conceed that there might be some settings I haven't fiddled with to make it do that for me, but have compared it with IE, and there isn't any comparison! Clicking links and using edit boxes is just 2 areas where Firefox didn't perform. So, like I said, I desperately need to get back to IE, but need to know how to do this, as so far, looking at properties, and under web options, I haven't found a check box to make IE my default browser! - Andy ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chris Hallsworth" <christopherhallsworth71@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, August 13, 2008 10:01 PM Subject: [access-uk] Re: Making IE my default browser | Wow!
