All right I need a little help with the WLM. Whenever I go to edit my profile on the spaces page, going from the WLM itself, it always opens the page in Internet Explorer. Now I looked into the options but I didnt find anything about switching browsers. My default one is Firefox, so I was wondering if there was any way to make WLM open the Personal Spaces page in Firefox?

I don't think so, MS doesn't want people using Firefox.

Check out Trillian, Pidgin, Miranda, etc...

Mine opens up all links in Firefox.

Yeah it does with links, but I go edit my space page through the WLM link it always opens it in IE. I mean I guess I can just bookmark the page and visit it from firefox but I'm just not wired that way. I need to know why and how something works and how to manipulate it to get desired results. Women are a bit problematic, though.

 

[Cutlass]

I don't even know how you accomplish that. i keep msn options to a minimum.

If I were on Windows now, I'd try replacing the iexplore.exe with Firefox' executable. Or better, copy the whole FF folder there, and rename the executable to iexplore.exe.

Of course, first back up your IE. Also, I haven't tried it. I have no idea whether such a thing would work, so please don't blame me if you break something.

But will it work after an update?
