| 174790 | 2003-09-13 04:02:00 | I wouldn't actually blame microsoft totally in this case. If you go to Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs > Set program access and defaults, and click the arrows to expand the custom section, you'll see that opera isn't listed under the web browser section. Mozilla is however and when I click links in messenger they open up in Mozilla just fine. :) Checking hotmail email still opens up IE though... :-/ |

| 174791 | 2003-09-13 05:03:00 | alexF......what OS? i think it also depends on what ver of messenger to. i had one ver which opened in default browser but a later ver would only open in IE. |
