I know I've seen this before but can't find it now.
I just uninstalled Mozilla FireFox, and want to revert to Internet Explorer
6. In View -> Folder Options -> File Types, I can't find .htm, or .html.
FireFox appearently changes this to FireFoxHTML, but can't find this either.
Can't find the option "IE Should check to see if it's the default browser"
now I'm lost. Anyone help?
Cheers.
 
Hi Ciaran - In IE6, Tools|Internet Options|Programs, make sure that the box
"Internet Explorer should check to see . . . " is checked, then re-boot.

Try as Jim said. In case, the checkbox setting is not honored by IE (in select cases), see:

Internet Explorer should check to see whether it is the default browser - option does not work:

Also mention the OS you're using.
