I use 4 different browsers, Firefox, and Seamonkey from Mozilla, Opera & for
those few sites that only seem to work with Internet Exploder IE8. It is
easy to switch defaults, occasionally Firefox, (which is my default of
choice) will put out an update that does not work right, then I will use
Seamonkey as default.

Subject: Re: [PCBUILD] Can I choose between 2 browsers?
I installed Firefox as a second browser, but I made the mistake by checking
"make firefox my browser".
It took over everything, including when I went to IE, I got firefox!! I
couldn't remove it on control panel.
I ended up searching for all firefox on my drive & deleting them one by one!
It was a job, but I got it out.

Although you can only have one browser as your default, you may have and use
as many browsers as you wish. You may open the browser of your choice with a
shortcut. If you keep shortcuts to each browser on your desktop, this is
easy. I do not keep links on my desktop, but if you right click on it and
choose "open with" you should see the browser choices there.

Subject: [PCBUILD] Can I choose between 2 browsers?
I recently installed Firefox on my Vista laptop and would like to use
both IE and Firefox to see which works best for me. It looks like Firefox
has become my default browser, but I want to be able to choose either one. I
have some (Verizon) links on my desktop which require IE to function. It
would be nice if I could right click on any link and select which browser I
want to use. Does anybody know of a way I can do that, or have another
method of choosing which will open?
Thanks for the help, Bob Lendrim
