Hi Joel,  I installed firefox and had some check box  questions after 
downloading it.  I don't recall the customizing questions or default to 
either or or.  When I came back to the lap top just now and clicked on IE it 
asked me if I wanted to make this my default.  I said yes but if the same 
set of circumstances happens to you I would assume (yes I know what happens 
when you assume) but it would default to firefox.  I am still working on 
webvisum so that is as far as I have gone so far.  HTH  Dave
