OK, I recently switched to opera, but mIRC still opens links in IE. I've looked through the options, but I still don't know what to do. How would I change this?
What OS, what version of mIRC?
Upgrade to the latest version (6.31) if you're on Vista. You should probably be using the latest version regardless of the OS.
I'm running mIRC 6.16 on Windows XP
No need, I reopened opera and it asked me if I wanted to set it as the default browser for viewing webpages, and now it works perfectly
thanks for your time and help
The recommendation to upgrade from 6.16 to 6.31 still stands.
Fortunately, now that you have the problem resolved in 6.16, the resolution should be maintained if you use the Upgrade option in the 6.31 installer.
