Im running firefox as my main web browser but when i click on links in the warhammer launcher they pop up in IE.
How can i change this so they open in firefox (if possible)?

your pc still thinks that IE is his main browser even though you told it that Firefox will be that from now on...
but Programs like warhammer launcher, or another example windows live messeger inbox (which will also always boot you to IE) ignore the fact that you have another browser indicated as your main...
this is because they skip the layer of asking your main which browser they should use, they just take the one out of your core (which will be IE)
I'm not sure where I changed it, ( I found it on the internet by searching (google ftw)) but it works for me right now
it has something to do with a small programm overwriting your main as soon as an IE action is requested and redirects it to Firefox...
but I have to say its more work than just copy pasting the link to your firefox

Personally I just let it open in IE then shut it down afterwards. :)

You can assign program acces in both Vista and XP to completly disable IE.
Vista: Start > Config. Panel > Standard applications > Application acces and standard applications.
XP: Dunno, not installed :p
