When I connect to a video link,
I get an error saying,
"Program not found"
Windows can't find Netscape.exe
needed for opening URL:HyperText Transfer Protocol"

I don't have nor want Netscape.
My guess is that IE6 is not my default, but I can't find
where to set it. I checked the box in Control Panels for
Internet settings to check but never get a dialog to
answer.
How can I SET the the default as IE6?
Thanks,
Scott

program you want windows to open the internet with
automatically

Tools | Internet Options | Programs
Check the bottom box telling IE to check to see if it is the default
browser.
Close IE, re-open it and it should ask.
