Select the File Types tab
Select Extension: (NONE), File Type: URL:HyperText Transfer Protocol
Click Advanced toward the bottom of the window
In the Edit File Type window, select open and click Edit
Clear the check for DDE above the DDE message box (which should contain* "%1" or similar)
Click OK, Click OK
Repeat for File Type: HyperText Transfer Protocol with Privacy and FTP

333720 2005-03-30 09:58:00 PS Safari i get as far as looking for the extension you said, and it doesnt come up with any saying hyper text etc.

So maybe im just not looking in the right places?

333721 2005-04-21 06:44:00 For anyone still struggling with the Tbird links opening IE instead of Firefox (and I think Firefox opening OE instead of Tbird). The following worked for me;

Reinstalling IE & OE via Control Panel -> Add/remove programmes -> Windows components.

Then resetting defaults via the same route -> Set programme access & default option

There seem to be a lot of posts but few conclusive solutions.
