Open link in Explorer not FireFox

Sunday, March 23, 2008 by jeffstroup | Discussion: Docks

I use Firefox as my default browser. However, many websites only work with Explorer. How do I customize a web shortcut on my dock to open in Explorer instead of Firefox?

Thanks

Have it point to iexplorer.exe instead of Firefox.

In the dock entry properties, it should point to C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe for the "Link" field, and for the Arguments field, put the url.
