Make IE v6 Default

[Jim McKinley]

I normally use IE v6. I have DL Firefox to use for a while to see how I
like it. When Firefox was DL it became my default browser. How do I make
IE my default browser?

Thanks,

Jim

1. [Control Panel | Add/Remove Programs | ] Set Program Access and Defaults
| Configuration that's already checked | Browser: Select "Internet Explorer"
here.

1b. Now check your settings here: IE Tools | Internet Options | Programs |
Default web browser.

If no joy, see:

Open the IE, go to Tools --> Internet Options --> "Programs" tab
Now check the box that says "internet explorer should check to see whether
it is the default browser". Restart IE, and click yes when you're asked if
you want IE as default browser.
