I've been using Firefox for a while and like it so I'd like my internet shortcuts, etc to open in Firefox instead of IE.

Also, if that's possible can I switch back?

And last but not least can I have some open with FF and some with IE?

To open all shortcuts in Firefox: Open Firefox, Tools->Options->somewhere-> Make Firefox the Default

To open all shortcuts in IE: Open IE, Tools->Options->somewhere-> Make IE the Default

If you want to open them in either program, right-click on the shortcut, choose Open With, pick Firefox. Do not click on the checkbox named \"always open this type of...blah\". Right click on teh shortcut again, choose Open With, and select IE. o not click on the checkbox named \"always open this type of...blah\". Now you can pick and choose which browser you want to use by use of the Open With menu.
