i use mozilla as my preferred browser.

the little link on top of the msn main window that takes you to your inbox directly opens up internet explorer and goes through there.

now, i was wondering if there was any way of it just using mozilla, instead of ie.

thanks.

If your using windows xp and you have SP1a installed perhaps navigating Add/Remove Programs, and along the side there's a Set Programs as Default, you can freely change it there.

Pffft Winston :p

If you crack open the registry and type in your email address

eg. if its "bosboi@hotmail.com" run a search for "bosboi" and it'll find it. In there, there is something about MESSAGES... Set it to 0.

Create a registry file (with File>Export) and stick it in quick launch :) Then just click that when you get an email.

Or, if you get bored, set it to 999999 just to annoy people signing onto the computer (if you use the welcome screen :D)

Hope this helps :)

*kicks computer*
Peace. Out.
