Shaddup, Firefox!

If you’re like me, you run Firefox on FreeBSD, or maybe Linux. And you use a classy nice window environment like fvwm2. And every time you start Firefox it asks can it be the default browser, and you say yes … like you use anything else? (MSIE4-Solaris, anyone?) And every time you start, it asks again . . . stupid!

I just saw this solution posted to FreeBSD-questions:

1) Go to the URL: about:config
2) Search for: browser.shell.checkDefaultBrowser
3) Right-click on that monkey and toggle it to false.
4) Restart your web browser a few times and smile.

Thanks, “nawcom” !!
