  Thank you for your response Amro. I have loaded both the 32 and 64 bit 
versions of internet IE 8 and in both cases the "tell me if internet explorer 
is not the default browser" option is checked. As it happens I have worked out 
that the 32 bit version is the default but it would be helpful to know how to 
be able to change  this.

  Well, not sure if this is the answer but in tools>internet options>programs 
page, the first check box is to make IE the default browser. tick that check 
box, restart IE and choose to make it the default when you get asked the 
question. Hope that works.

  Forgive re-posting but no replies to first request.

   

  Using Windows 7

   

  I have IE 8 both 32 and 64 bit. Would like to make the 32 bit my default 
browser. I can't find how to do this.

   

  I have loaded the 32 bit version from all programs and then looked in tools 
and options but can't find a check box to make the 32 bit that is the running 
version the default. 

   

  Can anybody help please.
