My default browser is Firefox - I have it set as the default browser and whenever I click on a htm/html file, it opens in Firefox.

However, when I click on a link in mIRC, it always opens in Internet Explorer instead of my default browser (Firefox). Is there any way I can set the default browser to use in mIRC?

Thanks!

Upgrade your mIRC. As you were told, you're using a deathly old version NOT COMPATIBLE WITH YOUR OPERATING SYSTEM

I'm having the exact same problem, even with the latest version.

I don't know if it's a problem in your mirc or a setting, but i put this together for earlier versions of mirc.
Code:
on ^*:HOTLINK:www*:*:{ if (www. isin $strip($1-)) { return } }
on *:HOTLINK:www*:*: {
 run firefox.exe $1-
}
on ^*:HOTLINK:http*:*:{ if (http:// isin $strip($1-)) { return } }
on *:HOTLINK:http*:*: {
 run firefox.exe $1-
}
on ^*:HOTLINK:ftp*:*:{ if (ftp:// isin $strip($1-)) { return } }
on *:HOTLINK:ftp*:*: {
 run firefox.exe $1-
}

if it wont open firefox, replace run firefox.exe $1- with the path to your firefox.

run $qt(C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe) $1-

I know some people had problem with the path befor, but thest the first code befor change the path.

The code goes in to your remote ALT + R in your mirc.

Well this is the official code.

Code:
on $^*:HOTLINK:/^\W*(((?:https?|ftps?):\/\/|www\.)\S+)\b/:*:return
on $*:HOTLINK:/^\W*(((?:https?|ftps?):\/\/|www\.)\S+)\b/:*:run firefox.exe -new-tab $regml(1)


I guess, official, "subjective" to mIRC.com forums or something.
