associating The Bat with Google Chrome
When ever there is a web link embedded in an e-mail and I click on that link, Internet Explorer is used to open the web page. How do I go about changing this so that the default browser is Google Chrome (which loads wy faster!). I cannot find anything in the preferences window that would allow me to change this. -- Avi Avram Sacks, using TB ver 5.3.6.0 on Win XP Pro sp3.

I thought TB! always used whatever the operating system's default browser was. If so, while running Chrome click on the far right icon (looks like three horizontal lines) to get the drop-down menu which contains the SETTINGS sub-menu. That first screen in that sub-menu has an option to make Chrome the system's default browser. Or, I am completely missing the point here. -- Best Regards, Jack LaRosa :usflag: Central Alabama Using The Bat! ver: 5.2.
