Default Problem with web folders

7 & 8

And it seems that you are right about WE automatically opens IE. Or actually
the Common Dialog control will show correct, but will not accept the starting
point as a http address. But after choosing the web folder it will show
correctly.

So there seems to be no solution.

Maybe I did not make myself clear in the explanation of the problem.

It's not a missing icons/options problem.

It's just that when typing in a http or https address in Windows Explorer
it opens Internet Explorer.

In Vista it does not do this but shows a file view if the destination is
a SharePoint area.

In Win XP I do not think WE had browser capability, so it makes sense to
open IE for a web page. What version IE (7 or 8?)/


I don't like being "right" if there is no solution!-)
