I've changed SetDefault.exe for XP-PRO-SP3 last month,
but didn't finish it for all possible configurations.

>running xp-pro
which version of servicepack is installed?

>run as default browser...
which one is started instead?

Administrator or user?

Did administrator install Firefox?
Which Firefox version is used?

(I'm setting up user profile for testing.)

Thank You...It works perfectly and it's fast and easy on the memory....I love it! I listen to online radio and when I logged on it said to use a more current browser. Is there a workaround for this?
Thank's Again,
Roger

@Roger
Is KM the default browser now?
I've only updated SetDefault.exe which was developed
by desga2 and Jujuland, but the browser was written by Dorian.

You can try different browser headers for your stream.
Just search the forum for details, or post
the stream's address to let us find a working header.
