Eudora uses IE as a default... how do I change that?

Hey all, I'm using Eudora 5.2 email client. When I get an email with a url in it, Eudora uses IE to view that page by default. I cannot find where to change this setting to use a different browser. can anyone help me out here?

thanks
-Z

You can go to Control Panel --> Add or Remove Programs --> Set Program Access and Defaults --> Custom, and then you can choose ur default web browser.
Another simple way is that you can open other web browser, and there should be "Set it as default browser" or sth like that in the TOOL/PREFERENCE option of that browser.

sorry for the slow response. I'm trying to use Firefox, and it already prompted me to be the default browser (to which I replied yes)

ideas?

There must be a "preferences" menu in Eudora where you can set such things. It should pick up on the global settings in Windows, but...
.bh.

To my knowledge, Eudora simply uses the system default browser.

Check to make sure the Firefox really *is* your default browser and opens links from other applications.
