Missing: URL:Hypertext Transfer Protocols

[P]

XP SP2

Installed Firefox 1.0
Some problems ensued, so I uninstalled FF and then ran Regseeker (a
program I have used many times without issue) to clear the registry.
Installed FF again. It works fine.

Links in email or irc open in IE, not FF.
FF says it is the default browser. Followed a guide which said to do this:
1. Open Windows Explorer
2. Select Tools and then Folder Options
3. Select the File Types tab
4. Select Extension: (NONE), File Type: HyperText Transfer Protocol
5. Click Advanced toward the bottom of the window
6. In the Edit File Type window, select open and click Edit
7. Clear the DDE message box (which should contain "%1")
8. Click OK, Click OK
9. Repeat for File Type: HyperText Transfer Protocol with Privacy

But... those two File Types don't exist. Anywhere.
I've tried the backup restore function of Regseeker, and that does nothing.

So I guess I need those File Types back, but I've no clue how to get
them. I've googled, tried the MS KB - no joy.

There must be a way to get them back... anyone know how ?

Advice gratefully received

Go to Start/Run, and type: REGSVR32 URLMON.DLL Then open IE, Tools menu,
Options, Program Tab, and click the "Reset Web Settings" button.

Thanks - just tried that.
Now in my File Types list, I have:

HXX HXX File

But I don't see either of the two file types I mention above....
Looks like I really broke something !

Many many thanks !
