That will work just fine. It's very similar to what I was going to post, in fact, that's why this rather useless, yet confirming, post exists.. Edited April 16, 2012 by somdcomputerguy

Couple of options from the wiki for the default browser if needed

_GetDefBrowser() ~ Author JScript
; Check to see which browser is the default.

MsgBox(4096, "Default browser", "My default browser is: " & _GetDefBrowser())

Func _GetDefBrowser()
    Local $sRegRead = RegRead("HKCRhttpshellopencommand", "")
    Return StringRegExpReplace($sRegRead, "(.*?x22)(.*?[/])*(.*?)(x22.*?z)", "$3") ; << Credits to SmOke_N
EndFunc   ;==>_GetDefBrowser
[/font][/left]

Or

_GetDefaultBrowser() ~ Author - guinness
; Get the default browser of the system.

ConsoleWrite(_GetDefaultBrowser() & @CRLF)

EndFunc   ;==>_GetDefaultBrowser
