IE Launches Firefox Problem

[oberststen]

Every time i try to open a site on IE it launches the site but in firefox :S so when i try to enter to Windows Update it opens FF so i can't use it, its pretty annoying, anyone know how to solve this?

[EchoNoise]

Control Panel > Add and Remove Programs > Set Program Access and Defaults...

Or you could just type "iexplore" in the Run dialog box, then click tools... then click windows update

i do have my IE, i also use it, but from yesterday is happen this, i can type an address on the IE and the IE doesn't do anything, just opens a FF window with the address a typed in IE, if i click the windows update menu, the IE stays blank and it opens a FF window with Windos Update :S

i also uninstalled firefox, and every time i tried to open a site on ie it just tell me "Program not found" or something like that :S

hi there,

i had the same problem. seems to have something to do with a test-installation of IE7 and a register-entry which also causes several other problems:

(i simply removed the mentioned registry-entry. "run/regedit" ...)

this should fix it.... well, it did for me ;-)

hope it works for you!
