Mike,
I think herein lies the problem... NN does in fact ask to be the default as
does IE but opera is not 'frontish' enough to ask! If it did, i'd say yes
and it may write the appropriate keys in the registry... Setting its
preferences to be called for "htm", "html", "ftp" etc doesn't seem to
actually *register it* as the default browser.
Perhaps its an opera problem and not a win98 one...
Sidebar: Before posting this msg i installed NN 4.75 and allowed it to claim
default browser status but as before once OE is running, IE is king! IE
doesn't even bother popup the question about not being the default
browser...
Cheers!
