Then my real question is how to make Firefox my default browser without
re-installing Firefox where I think, if I remember correctly, one is then
given a choice?
I know I've seen this answered somewhere before so another question would
be: Without bringing it up in a forum such as PCWorks, where on the internet
or in "help" would I find this information? The question seems so elementary
that I should have the independence to get that information myself.
Interesting question, Harold. It is saved as a FF web page. Any file with
the extension "htm" or "html" is seen by your computer as a web page. In
your case the icon shows as IE, because IE is currently your default
browser (Sometimes this gets screwed up when you change browsers). If you
set FF as your default browser, the icons will change, but there will be
no change in the file at all.
The larger point is that the icons are just a convenience. They show which
program will open a given file by default, but you can always use the
Right-click "Open with" option to open a file in another program, or just
open the program first, then navigate to the file in question. Many long
time Windows users have no idea of this concept, and I don't know why. ---

Hello again ... As a result of many uninstalls and re-installs of Firefox
this weekend (EverNote issue?), Firefox opens fine, with no EverNote to
be seen, but I must have clicked the wrong button someplace and now when
right-clicking and saving a page as a webpage (like on the desktop), it
saves as Microsoft Internet
