    I have installed Firefox and made it the default browser when it asked if I wanted to do so.
    When I click on a link in an email in Outlook, IE6 opens, not Firefox!

    How can I stop IE6 from opening in this situation?

    After doing a little googling I have found that many of the other forums have suggested using this Free Tool to posters with your problem and it seems to have helped them.

    Tried that......doesn't work properly. When I click on a link in an email, both IE6 and Firefox open the page simultaneously.

    Which options do You have in Internet Explorer > Tools > Internet options > Programs?

    Is it possible to select Firefox from there?
