K-Meleon Web Browser Forum
I have searched for this with no luck. I upgraded Firefox to 3.5 and it registered itself as my default browser. I ran the Kmeleon setup assistant with no luck. I changed the default to IE 8.0. That worked. I ran the Kmeleon setup assistant again - no change. I checked under Windows Explorer tools/Folder Options/ File types and html is set to Kmeleon but page links in emails still open up in IE. What have I missed?
in kmeleon's folder look for a binary called setdefault.exe and run it, you can also launch it from preferences>browsing>make default button
if you fiddle with bad browsers(stealing defaultry without asking user) a lot, then you might like to try km defaulter which automatically checks if km is default and prompts to make it default if otherwise

kmdefaulter.exe must be saved in kmeleons root folder(same path as k-meleon.exe) create a shortcut to kmdefaulter on your desktop/startmenu etc for easy access.
