Hi Chad, You should first Click on the 4th option - Set program access and computer defaults and expand Custom. Choose a default web browser as Mozilla Firefox and click on ok. Then when you goto Associate a file type or protocol with a program, you will find the filetype for ftp, http, https protocols will show Firefox as the default browser. abckid.

That did not work at all. I had already set firefox as default browser, it reset itself back to IE!

Strange ! Did you check Programs tab in Internet Options for Default Browser - Make Default or Tell me if IE is not the def.. web brow.. You can also try to check from Firefox Options, Default browser and click Check now and click YES when it promts. Hope this helps. abc "Chad" wrote: > That did not work at all.
