I was hoping someone in WAMUG could give some advice-
I recently installed netscape 4.78 for OS9 into classic (i'm running os
10.3) - it was needed for an old medical textbook. The textbook now
works, fine but I've been left with a much bigger problem - every time
I try and click on a weblink, classic launches and netscape opens. This
is really irritating the crap out of me and I'm not sure how to fix it.
Ive tried ctrl-clicking html and .webloc files in the finder and making
sure that they're set to open safari or firefox, but despite this
netscape still launches when I double click them. The same goes for
clicking web links in emails.
Is there any way to stop this from happening? I want to get back to
being able to click on weblinks and have firefox open rather than
launching netscape
as another interesting aside, I couldn't make the jump to 10.3.8 -
updating using the combined update via software update resulted in
looping kernel panics upon restart or turning on my 12" powerbook. I've
had to archive and restore my powerbook three times! Lets hope 10.4 is
a little better.
Thanks
