It's not that, I have no problems about it using IE...  What I really
want is to not have to use that batch file so i don't have to close
command windows that linger open after opening the web browser. I just
thought that if it had a place to specify the web browser internally, it
might be able to get rid of that.

I suppose what I really want is to be able to tell a filter to open a
URL and be able to extract said URL from within a message...
