    Help Default browser???

    How do I change my default browser from Firefox to Internet Explorer??? I have tried to suss it out myself and I am sure it's something really simple but it would appear not as simple as me.

    Any help appreciated?

    Control Panel, Internet Options, Programs and you should be able to make it the default in there. In XP there is a Defaults thingy somewhere in Service Pack 2 as well but not got it so can't say for sure.
