My $.02 I dont think this is a DQSD problem but a failure of windows to handle the default browser properly... I have had similar problems in the past.. Reinstalling DQSD wont fix the problem because the problem is upstream of the toolbar. I installed Firefox. Fired it up (no pun intended :-) ) and set it to the default browser... dqsd worked with it just fine.. I then started up IE over and over, and it *never once* inquired about setting itself to the default browser, even though it is in the internet settings to ask.. I started Netcaptor and it too never prompted me to set it to the default browser (no surprise since Netcaptor is based on IE). I loaded setbrowser and forced the default to Netcaptor. Still the default didn't change. I tried a couple of searches and I got script errors a couple of times and on the third or fourth attempt, VOILA! I was prompted to set my default browser.. I accepted the change and now the default is Netcaptor again...
Clearly there is a bug in windows that it doesn't detect default browser settings all the time. I would mess with the browser settings and try to get windows to recognize the changes. DQSD merely writes out an html file and executes it.. It is up to windows to figure out which application to load for it..
