I'm wondering if I can switch the default browser for the launcher to firefox or basically anything other than IE.

My IE is all messed up and I can never load the launcher to see if the server is up or not.

if firefox is your default, then that shoudl be used. if it is not, then make it ur default.

btw, i am going to sleep now...

Actually, as far as i know, that won't work. And no, you can't use firefox for starting the game. My friend explained me why, but since i'm not that much into IT i didn't get it Something about launcher not using browser itself but only some parts of it, etc. Well, you'll have to reinstall IE i guess.
