Simply install firefox and as it starts up it should display the message "Would you like to use firefox as your default internet program", or something like that. Check the box & your done!

Be careful with FF 6. I started having problems after I upgraded. A LOT of others have the same problem. You might want to try Google Chrome. It smokes and leaves the current version of FF in the dust.
