Hi,

this sounds like something reasonably simple to do, but i haven't
figured out how: on a PC with many local user accounts (workgrp, no
domain), how do you set individual users to have different default
browsers?
Like IE, Firefox, Mozilla, Opera, etc. Right now changing the default
browser for one user changes it for everyone.

thanks,
- Jan

Jan,

See if my DefaultBrowser utility helps:

Tested with Internet Explorer, Firefox and some others.
