Wow... who would want to add all those keys just so a single link opens up in their default browser?

Actually, most people would only have to modify this one

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\htmlfile\shell\open\ddeexec\Application]
@="Maxthon"

the rest are just included for completeness
That only changes the used application name of the process that is going to handle the HTML file when you double click a HTML file or when a HTML file is openend. AKA, it changes the HTML file association. This has certainly nothing todo with the "you have x new email links".

Without StuffPlug-NG and with a disabled POP3 feature in Plus! and with an hotmail account and you did click on "you have x new emails"?

Because we are not talking about normal links, like TB pointed out (which mistake I also made with my first post in this thread). And the registry keys you show have only something todo with file associations and thus normal links, so make sure you're talking about the very same thing.

Cause I know that all mozilla based browsers, among others, can be set as default browser an they will be started up when you click a normal link; that's not the issue here...
