I've started using firefox today, but if I click on my email through MSN Messenger, it opens an explorer window... how do I get it to open in firefox?

MSN Messenger is hard coded to open "New e-mail message" links with Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, every currently known workaround involves downloading and installing additional software.
Sorry FlameBoo you will just have to open another email account with Yahoo or Googlemail etc unless you feel confident to install/configure the additional software required.

PS don't stop using Firefox - it's fab

firefox is much better than ie , imo

I'm trying out googlemail today too Grin

Thought I'd make sure i liked it before changing my address with everyone though.

Thankyou - at least I know its not just me being silly!

jsut wondering, why is firefox better? I have both but rarely use it, just because IE is default.

Tabbed Windows - a modern miracle

FlameBoo · 01/06/2006 13:28

Yup - the tabbed windows are great, and it just feels better somehow (now I'm starting to get used to it that is!!!)

I can't get firefox to work for some reason so I have no idea why it is so wonderful. Would really like to find out.

Don't think my PC likes it Sad

Kelly1978 · 01/06/2006 14:37

mine aren't tabbed It's acting the same as ie.

I use Safari as I can't get Firefox (damn work anti-download policy) but agree IE is rubbish. Have link in toolbar to Hotmail though, so usually use that rather than going through MSN.
