IE to Firefox? by unoz on 07-09-2009 at 08:24 AM

Hello there,

When I click a link a contact sends me, it opens up in Internet Explorer. This would generally not be a problem except that IE goes extremely slow on my computer and takes a while to close, and it's simply a bother.

I was curious if there was any way for me to change open links to Firefox instead of IE.

Thank you for your time!

Uno.

set firefox as your default browser and they will open in firefox :)

This is caused, due to the fact you agreed to a message that asked your permission to make internet explorer your "default" browser. To change this you might want to open Firefox. At the top there should be the Tools menu. Select Options. Then select Advanced panel, and then go to the General tab, and click check now. Check mark yes to set Firefox as your default browser.
