Thread: Default Browser

  1. #1
    How can I make IE6 my default browser? I made MyIE2 my default browser then I used their option to 'restore previous default browser settings' or something and now IE6 still isn't my default browser. I don't get that widnow saying "IE Is currently not your default browser. Would you like it to be?" How can I make it my default browser?

    IE should be the defult browser even when MYIE2 is set to defult. If you uninstall MYIE2 then IE will automatical take over.

    go to your internet options>programs> here at the bottom there is a box to check for ie to check to see if it is the default browser, check it close all browsers and open ie, if its not default it will ask to to set to default
    or go to start>set program access and defaults>custom>choose your internet browser

    I did that a few times and nothing happened.

    Shadow, I still want MyIE2, I just don&#39;t want it to be the default browser.

    OK, I finally got that IE widnow to popup asking me if I wanted to make it my def. browser... so I click YES.
    Now when I click on a link in AIM, I get the following error:
