Hello. I recently put one of my most-used websites on my desktop as web content, but all the links open in IE.
Not good enough! I want them to open in Mozilla Firefox. I was thinking I could switch the IE pathname to the Mozilla Firefox path, and sneak something in there ;)
Otherwise, can I specify which program is to open the link? I think Windows passes a .url file along to the program, or just the URL as an arguement. Either way, Mozilla should support it (it hasn't let me down yet).
Oh, and this is why I don't like IE, and I like Mozilla Firefox:
- Almost full security prompts, when actually necessary
- Tabbed Browsing (much better with the 3rd mouse button as an 'open in new tab' shortcut)
- ProxySwitch, which lets me get to websites like these at school >:), serves them right for blocking harmless websites anyway.
However, this is not an issue with my school's computer, but my private computer, and I would like to find a way.
Another thing, the website is www.thottbot.com , which is a WoW database. The Windows 2000 computer is right next to my gaming computer, so it makes looking stuff up easier. Just background information about the fact that none of the links are buttons, but actual "<a href>" links.
