When I receive e-mail with an HTML link, and I click on the link, it attempts to download that page with Microsoft Internet Explorer. I hate MS Internet Explorer. When I am on a web page with Firefox, and there is a link, I click on it and it downloads the site with Firefox just fine.

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

== a month, or so, ago.

I forgot to add that the MS Internet Explorer thing happens when I am using Mozilla Thunderbird.

Thanks,
