The best answer from the company

from http://snipurl.com/2902g :
This is just a short tip for all users of twhirl who are on Windows Vista. If clicking a link in twhirl opens Internet Explorer, although ou did not configure it as your default browser, the following workaround from Adobe might help.
Go to Start > Default Programs > Set Program Access and Computer Defaults, expand Custom, select the radio button next to the application you want to set as the system-wide default browser (for example, Mozilla Firefox) and apply the setting.
from Adobe AIR 1.0 release notes
There’s no guarantee that this will work, but you should give it a try.

Inappropriate?I tried this, and it worked for a little while. Now, nothing happens when I click on a link in twhirl. I am running v.0.8.1 on Vista, with Firefox 2.0.0.14 running as the default browser.

Inappropriate?I have the same problem but, I use flock 1.1 on windows vista and setting flock as default still opens IE (yuck) and not flock. this gets annoying to have to ether read the artical in IE or copy past to Flock. and if I have one IE open and click on another link it opens a second IE as well as a tab in the open IE browser window. any help to get this solved would be helpful and other suggestions?
I’m sad
