Computer help please

notwilight

I just installed another computer on my home network. I put an old version of frontpage on it for making ebay ads.

Now whenever I click on post or reply to a message on these boards the computer tries to open frontpage. I'm sure it is a setting with frontpage as the default editor for something. Can someone tell me how to turn it off?

No other issues with this software.
Thanks, Jerry

start->control panel->classic view (from the link on the left, if you're not already in classic view)->folder options

click the "file types" tab at the top and then scroll down the list until you see HTM and HTML. Click on each one time and make sure your browser is the "default program" listed. If not, click the "change" button and tell it to use the browser.

Also, if that doesn't work, you'll have to reset your browser as your default browser.

In Netscape, go to tools->options->general and you'll see a button to set it as the default browser.

Firefox is the same as Netscape.

For Internet Explorer, right click the internet explorer icon and choose properties. Then go to the "programs" tab at the top. Use the "make default" button to set IE as the default browser. You can change the defaults for your other programs above it. Then click OK.

If the above suggestion does not work, try this:

Simultaneously press the CTRL-SHIFT-F9-SYSREQ keys. Hold these down while you beat the computer case with a steel tire iron, and yell “Down with Microsoft!” and “Bill Gates wears polyester suits.” This will not solve the software problem, but it will make you feel better about it.

If you hold down the ALT key and press the F4 key at the same time it should fix your problem.
