RE: Change the browser

Links in conversation windows will open in your default browser (mine is Mozilla 1.7rc1 right now). However, when clicking the toasts, Messenger still opens IE: for example, opening your e-mail inbox.

Depending on how Messenger launches IE, it may be possible to intercept the call (in a not too dissimilar way Plus! intercepts messages in conversation windows possibly) and redirect it to your default browser. It is possible in unofficial clients, like aMSN, to use any browser you wish to open your inbox, but the official client, being MS, launches IE. If anyone can write a small app to change this, I for one will be happy to test it.
