buzz44 Posted March 18, 2005 Author Posted March 18, 2005 (edited) yes but it would help if u had 2 different browsers lol ... i have installed IE and Mozilla When mozilla is default the value of HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\https\shell\open\command changes to G:\PROGRA~1\FIREFOX.EXE -url "%1" and when IE is default its "D:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" -nohome edit: forgot IE comes with windows LOL Edited March 19, 2005 by burrup qq
