  i've a friend with win98se fully patched... they are trying to move =
away=20
  from IE and have Opera, Mozilla, and Firefox installed... Firefox is =
the=20
  only one set to be the default browser...

  now, here's the tricky part... when they read email in outlook, if=20
  there's a url in the email and they click on it, it'll open Firefox =
first=20
  and then IE... both going to the same url... i've looked and looked =
and=20
  looked and can't find anything that would control this... i've gone =
into=20
  everything i can find and turned off the "be the default browser" =
setting=20
  and only enable that in firefox...

  the wierdest part (and we've not figured out the flow that causes it) =
is=20
  that when they try to demonstrate this for me, if they use an email=20
  they've already read and visited the url inside, sometimes it opens=20
  firefox only as it should...

  it seems to be "new" unread messages that do this double opening of =
the=20
  browser but when working on this yesterday, i even rebooted a couple =
of=20
  times and was still getting the double on messages that we had just=20
  tested and visited... older already read messages did give the single=20
  browser as desired...

  arggghhh! i'm almost confusing myself just thinking about it...
