'firefox.exe http://www.google.com' did not work at my command prompt so I edited the path to include firefox and rebooted. It then worked. Just for kicks I tried 'explorer.exe http://www.google.com' knowing that it wouldn't work because my firewall is set to not allow IE to see the light of day but it did work. Those sneaky MS employees. During the MS trial with the justice department, a computer scientist testified that IE could be removed from windowsOS, not just temporarily hidden, and he demonstrated it. Does anyone know how to permanently remove or disable IE and force the default browser to be selected? Steven Hedgepeth
Interesting. It must be how you have Firefox installed/configured on your
machine because on my WinXP Pro laptop with Firefox installed, using that Firefox code in DoShellCommand did nothing and using that Firefox code in the Windows Command Prompt returned an error.
