I'm running some code called ProcessControlVB that I downloaded from somewhere. It opens Notepad, Adobe Reader, or Internet Explorer. I can change the code to open Firefox instead of Internet Explorer.

What I would like to do is be able to determine the default browser and open it (whatever browser it might be). Any help in determining what the default browser is would be greatly appreciated.

hi there..

there has to be a registry key that hold that info.. try to google about it...
