Firefox and active desktop
Try doing this though be aware that some programs will use IE regardless
of what setting changes you may make. Click on Start, Set Program Access and Defaults (if this is not on your start menu then click on Control Panel/Add or Remove Programs) and Set Program Access and Defaults button on left margin. Click on Custom and then click on the downward arrow on the right. You will see, "Choose a default Web browser:" Make sure FireFox's button is blackened and if you so choose, you can unclick the "Enable access to this program" box. Click on OK and you should be set.
