Hi, My default browser is firefox. I tend to use this all the time. But
I prefer IE6 for certain sites. Ive created a shortcut on my desktop
from IE6, to a particular web page. When ever I open this its opening
in firefox. How do I make this open in IE6 without setting IE6 to my
default browser. Ive tried right clicking to find the open with menu,
but it does not show. Is there another way to change file associations.
Your help is appreciated.
Regards Robert

Right-click on the shortcut, select Properties, and in the Target field
add the path to IE enclosed in double quotes followed by the website
address also surrounded by double quotes. Example:

"C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE"
"www.myfavouritepage.com"

Regards,
Steve
