Problem if IE is not browser

I have FireFox as my default browser and when I run
automatic updates, it says it can't connect to the internet
- which is connected. But if I open IE, then it updates
fine. Not a real problem for me, but still a bug, IMHO.
 
Not a bug at all, you must use IE for WU.
This problem also has nothing to do with this group or MSAS :>)

All the best,
 
Since MSAS is primarily targetted at protecting IE, it would make sense to
have IE be the default browser for updating MSAS. FireFox I would expect to
have their own built in AntiSpyware utilities since they use the open source
model for everything.

Get the extension User Agent Switcher from Firefox's
extension page. It can fool sites into thinking you're
using IE, Opera or Netscape. It has worked for me.
