yes it is

Have you checked IE7 is set as your default browser (Start->Set Program Access and Defaults)?

Otherwise best off asking Microsoft about it.

Is there anyway to fix this problem w/o setting IE as the default browser? I'd really prefer FireFox... lol

probably the same way as the solution above except pick "firefox" instead of "internet explorer"?

No, because there isn't an option.
There is a, "Use current browser" option, but that's already selected.

RE: url Link won't open by MattyRid on 05-12-2007 at 06:32 AM

under that you should see a list of browsers...use that to set as default.

Am I missing something, or am I in the wrong place?
There isn't a list to select from, it just asks if you want to use the current one.

must mean firefox isn't installed properly then...try reinstalling firefox with the latest version and see what happens

Allright, I'll post back after I do that..

Alright that fixed it! Thankyou!
