IntelliType Pro 7.0 launches the wrong web browser

How can you force IntelliType Pro 7.0 to follow changes to the user's default web browser setting?

I just replaced a computer for someone with a Microsoft Natural Wireless Ergonomic Keyboard 7000.   The new system is running Vista Enterprise x64.  We loaded IntelliType Pro 7.0, freshly downloaded from Microsoft.

When I did the install, I had my own default web browser set to Firefox.  The user uses web sites that depend on IE, so she set her default browser back to IE.  When she presses the Web/Home key, IntelliType still launches Firefox.  The same happens for one of the keyboard's custom buttons that's been set to a URL.

I've verified in the Set Default Programs control panel that all the associations for IE are set to IE. Issuing 'start http://whatever' from a command prompt does properly launch IE.  We've set the default browser to Firefox and back to IE. We've reinstalled IntelliType.  Neither helped.  I've verified it's happening for my userid as well as her's.
