Can I have different default browsers in admin mode and user mode of Windows 2000?

more options

Would like to use IE in Admin mode of Windows 2000 as the default browser. But in user mode of Windows 2000 I would like to use Firefox as my default browser. Is this possible? How would I set this up?

I don't think that is possible in W2K. There is an app for WinXP to allow separate default browsers for each logon user account, but it doesn't work in W2K.
