BJ, It has always automatically used IE on my PC, despite my default browser being Chrome (and before that, Firefox). I've always just assumed it was an unchangeable, if annoying, characteristic of FTM.

Most of them have to do with a parameter dealing with the height not being present. While they can be annoying, they tend to come and go and I'm not sure what corrects the problem. Someone wanted to know which browser FTM will use. It is suppose to use your default browser; however, there are occasions when I click something and it automatically opens the IE browser.

When it is shown within the FTM window, there is no way to tell which browser it uses. The developers have said that it uses the default browser so I have to go with that. If you go to the Web Search work area and open a web search window, there is an icon just to the left of the Address field. Hovering the cursor over the icon, labels it as Browser Options. Clicking the down arrow drops a list of options, one of which is New Window. Clicking on that option, opens the current page using the default browser, in my case FireFox.
