Works fine with IE
Authored by: ebow on Mar 06, '02 11:38:37PM

I do this all the time with IE, mainly because I can't get URL files to open using my default browser (OW 4.1) consistently. So far, haven't noticed any problems with IE, as infrequently as I use it. I've even killed off Classic Startup once or twice, with no noticeable effects.

Try editing the Internet system prefs plist file. There's a spot where you can configure the default options. Of course, even when doing that, it would change back to IE every now and then, but it would do it less frequently. I ended up deleting IE to make all URLs open in OmniWeb.

Ah, but I've done that (editing the Internet pref pane plist file). OmniWeb is the only app in the list, and it's the default. Most everything else listens to that setting, but not dragged URL files. And there's no way to change the "Open with app" setting for them. Anyway...
