Hi again Merv,

I meant to also include this for Mozilla Suite.
Mozilla Suite: "Preferences -> Navigator -> Set Default Browser"

I have been running Mozilla 1.7.13 on my iMac under OS 10.2.8. Mozilla can 'talk' to all my banks where other browsers can't. However, three days ago I decided to try the more recent version of Firefox, viz 2.0. Previous versions would not perform as required but this version does. I would now like to make Firefox 2.0 my default browser, and clicked the appropriate square in preferences for this to happen. Help for Mozilla said a button in Preferences-Navigator turns on/ off the default browser condition. I could not find such a button anywhere in Mozilla's preferences. As a consequence, if I double click on a web address in an email or such, Mozilla grabs it. I have trashed Mozilla's plist file, quit all applications and restarted but no change. Running Repair Permissions gave no joy. I don't wish to uninstall Mozilla just yet, so are there any suggestions as to how I might work around this one?

Hi Merv,

I just downloaded the FireFox v 2.0 & going to Preferences> Main
& clicking the 'check now' under System Defaults ' and changing my default browser to Firefox
..... it did.
If that's not working for you.
Another way to set our default Browser is:

   1. Download Safari if you do not already have it.
   2. In Safari, choose "Preferences" from the menu.
3. Click the "General" icon, and choose Firefox from the default web browser pop-up menu.

If you don't see Firefox in the list, make sure it is in the "Applications" folder.

Cheers,

Ronni
