I have had v 8.01 installed for several weeks. All worked OK on installation. Since the last few days I cannot navigate to any web page from e.g a link in an email, unless I open Firefox first. Somehow the mechanism for opening Firefox has failed. Instead of opening Firefox, clicking on a link opens my Windows Explorer window at My Documents.bold text
