For some reason, the links I click on in Microsoft Outlook Express open a Firefox browser window. I would prefer the links to open IE browser window. Where do I make the change?

This is on a VERY old computer using windows 98 SE. Firefox slows it down, which is why I want to run IE.

Set Internet Explorer to be your default web browser. In IE, start on the menu bar > Tools > Options > Programs > click [Make Default].

You can use Firefox and IE on the same computer. The reason you not getting IE to open can be many things. Check if any other pages can open... it might be the home page cannot be accessed. If that not the case, IE might be corrupted or has been infected, or your security settings of IE prevents it from accessing the internet. Check your IE settings, another webpage in the URL and finally scan your system for virus or spyware.

There's really no reason to use Internet Explorer. Seriously. There are much better ways to channel any masochistic urges you may have. If Firefox isn't working out for you, check out a couple of other alternatives, Opera and Safari.

Go to your control panel and change IE browser to default
