A URL in a message was opened by Firefox but overnight this changed to IE which I'm not too happy about. What can I do?
Until lately when I clicked a link in a received email Firefox opened the URL concerned, but now I've let Microsoft install their latest IE, this browser starts.

Inappropriate?I'm guessing you did the "express install" where you don't get to untick the option to make IE8 your default browser?
From the Firefox menu, do Tools -> Options, "Advanced" section, "General" tab, click the "check now" button at the bottom for system defaults.
If that fails, read this article.

Thanks, I guess I'm too permissive to MS. -
Inappropriate?It seems that clickin "Check now" has now effect. It seems that that operation is not working. Nothing seems to be changed. Have you really been able to change settngs so that they behave as you want? Really!
