My Windows Mail program has hundreds of stored messages with dozens of links.<br />
When a link is clicked on it opens IE.<br />
I removed IE 9.0 last night and I was given a message that the previous version of IE would still be on my system. It's IE 7.0.<br />

I desire to try Firefox more often, and how do I get Firefox to open these links contained in these e-mails, instead of IE 7.0. I assume some default setting in Vista, not sure.

Web browsers are applications used primarily to display documents, files and media from the Internet, identified by a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) that can be a page, image, video or other file. Some browsers require the use of add-ons or extensions to safely render the information they receive; others have systems built into them to perform the same functions.

However, the term has come to include the use of programs that enable the use of any component that isn’t simple text and static graphics, such as audio, video, animation, virtual reality, conferencing and monitoring.
