How do I make Netscape my default browser?
If you're using Windows, just do a find for "prefs.js". Open that in notepad. Look for the following line:
user_pref("browser.wfe.ignore_def_check", true);
Just change this to false.
If you are using a Macintosh or UNIX, the file is "preferences.js".
Then, just restart netscape.
You can also do this...
1.)Locate a file on your disk with the extension htm or html (Or make one using notepad---save a text file with the extension .html).
2.) From Windows Explorer, hold down on shift while right clicking on file.
3.) Select "Open With"
4.) Put a check mark in option box "always use this program ... " then scroll down box and pick browser.
