How is mirc deciding which browser to use?
Something is horribly wrong in its logic..
please do get "technical" with registry entries read etc or method used.

I have now tested this to no end.
Tell me when you install Firefox 1.5.0.8 and have it set as default, check that mirc opens links in firefox. Now go into "Program Defaults" and set Internet Explorer as the default browser.. Do the links now STILL open in Firefox, until you uninstall Firefox.

Note all other programs I have tested (and this is over 10 programs on my machine) work 100% perfect, mirc is the odd one out not following the current settings in Default Programs. I also do not get the issue with IE being confused if it is default or not, it always correctly reports this.

Are you tesing on Vista RTM(in my case Ultimate but this should not matter)?

Any clues about the visual issue with the cursor? is it unique to my machine or can you recreate that?
