Lunacy with IE
-
This may sound stupid...having abandoned Internet Explorer for Mozilla almost 12 months ago I'm now faced with a Web Portal that needs to be opened in IE to allow me to edit it. Does anyone know how to create a shortcut that opens in IE inspite of my default web browser preferences. I keep on opening the damn thing in Mozilla and its driving me round the bend :confused: John Hudson Nick Rowan enforcing Law and Order in the Lounge::rose: Oi! Don't start on me now, I'm just the UN Peacekeeping force. ;P http://www.rainbow-innov.co.uk[^]

I'm sure I've got something similar going before a few months ago - I just can't remember how. If it helps its IE6...
