[wpkg-users] Make Firefox the default browser?

[Matt Miller]

This is for when you want to run Firefox, not install it...
Creating a shortcut that runs that command won't work either. The users 
are running as user, not as administrator, and can't change the default 
browser.
I think I'm going to have to go through the registry. I'll have a peak 
at the file you posted. I'll post whatever I figure out to the wiki and 
list.
