Firefox won't stay as default browser ...
Every time I fire up firefox it claims it is not the default browser. If I click on yes to make it the default browser or go into Prferences | General and hit the Default Browser [Check Now]-button and/or I restart firefox, I still get the message that it is NOT the default browser.
