I.E. keeps opening Firefox
I will admit that my normal web access is through Mozilla Firefox but I do
use I.E. on a number of occasions. My problem is that, when I put in a search, or type in a URL in to the address bar on I.E., it opens up and/or goes to the page in Firefox. I can't get off my home page in I.E. I have tried only opening I.E., and/or closing Firefox but it still does the same thing. Can anyone suggest how I can fix it so I can use I.E. too. You can email me directly at Larry@MiclaKennels.org Thanks Larry |

Re: I.E. keeps opening Firefox
I have FireFox as the default but it didn't use to do this, and it doesn't do
it all the time. "AO3" wrote: > > Do you have IE or Firefox set as the default brouser? > > > -- > AO3 > |

Re: I.E. keeps opening Firefox
Hi,
IE6 or IE7? If IE6, was IE7 installed and uninstalled at some point?

Re: I.E. keeps opening Firefox
I am having the same problem. I can't open anything in IE - it opens firefox
when I type in the address bar. Just wanted to post here so I can watch for answers. Sharon "Don Varnau" wrote: > Hi, > IE6 or IE7?
