Can I somehow set Firefox as default so windows don't open in IE?

I prefer to use Firefox - it is far easier to use and can do so MUCH more. Whenever I select a link in a document, on-line, whatever, my PC always opens new links with IE. Even the confirmation of my Firefox Help account opened in IE. I want to somehow force my PC to open ONLY in Firefox. Help!
