Clicking link does not open default browser #238459 31/07/12 07:44 PM

jazpermo J	I'm using 7.25 and whenever I click a link to open, its not using the default browser. In my case it should be Chrome. However it's opening Internet Explorer everytime. Is this a known issue?

If it is, set IE to your default browser, and then reset chrome to being the default again, it could be Windows got confused. If you go to Start -> Run and type in a URL like http://mirc.com, does it load in IE or Chrome?

jazpermo J	It's working now. I made IE my default then went back to Chrome and made it my default. Now it's opening the links in Chrome. Thanks for the help!
