Hello all,

I have a webbrowser that uses tabcontrol. Does anyone know how I can make a browser open a new browser (mine not IE) if a link is click on a website.

Right now, if a link causes a new browser to open then IE opens instead of mine

Any suggestions would be great.

Thanks in advanced

Use the My.Computer.Registry class to get at the registry and change the default web protocol calls to point to your browser.

For examaple,

 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\.html]
@="FirefoxHTML"

points to the Firefox browser.
