No matter what website I click on a hyperlink, my MS Frontpage program opens.

Hi Dueceswild76,

Have you accidentally told Windows to open all hyperlinks with MS Frontpage? I would check to be sure that Firefox is your default browser. I'd also right click on a html document or url and check to see what you have set as the default program to open that type of file.

If that all checks out, try starting Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode. If you don't have the issue while all of your add-ons, extensions, and themes are disabled, you can try adding them back in one by one until you find the culprit. You should look at the Extensions and Themes troubleshooting guide and the Troubleshoot issues with plugins like Flash or Java to fix common Firefox problems article as well.

Hopefully this helps!
