Every install i can remember of, Firefox has always changed the default web browser to its self without asking. While this makes me wonder what else it **** up without asking, it would be nice to have it ask if you want to make it the default browser like "every" other browser out there.

If I remember correctly then there is a check box on one of the pages that the installer displays.
Found it on the summery page of the custom install and and the standard install, so you may have missed that check box.
