I accidentally changed my default browser to Firefox. I need it back on IE. Now, my shortcut to IE goes to Firefox instead. So, I don't have IE to change it. How can I change my default browser back to IE through Firefox? Thanks!
Don't know what else to add. I always use Firefox. My husband refuses to. I have a shortcut for him to get to the internet, and it always came up to via IE. Now, I somehow accidentally changed the default browser to Firefox, so when using that shortcut, it takes him to the Firefox browser instead of IE. He is furious! How can I change it back?

You can make IE the default browser, that will reset some registry keys
Control Panel > Internet Options: Programs
Put a check in the box next to 'Internet Explorer should check to see whether it is the default browser'
Start IE and let IE make itself the default browser.
Check the default settings in:
Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs > "Set Program Access And Defaults" (on the left)
Open: Custom (click arrow on the right)
Select "Internet Explorer" under "Choose a default Web Browser"
Click OK
