do this: 1. Start -> Set Program and Access Defaults 2. Select "Custom" radio button. 3. Under "Choose a default Web Browser" select Firefox.

Although I had selected Firefox as default when I installed, somehow Outlook still did not pickup the configuration. Once I did this (above) Outlook started opening up hyperlinks in mails w/ Firefox instead of IE.
